#3 - Barbell Training Motivation | 4 Influences & How To Combat Them!

Wouldn't it be great if we were always motivated to train? If you've ever experienced lulls in your motivation to train with barbells or keep up with your powerlifting training, you're not alone.

Barbell training motivation ebbs and flows and is a natural part of the training experience. However, there are many factors that contribute to changes in training motivation and it's how we respond to it that makes all the difference!

In this episode of the Progressive Rehab & Strength Podcast, Dr. Rori and Dr. Alyssa explore strategies for creating and maintaining motivation in your training through the ups and downs of your lifting career. It's easy to train when spirits are high, you are having fun and hitting PR's, but anyone who has trained for multiple years knows that everyone goes through slumps from time to time.

Whether it's an injury, the intensity of training, or life factors affecting you, training motivation can be hard to find, even for elite athletes. But by setting attainable goals, good habits, creating a solid plan for progress (and sticking to it!), keeping a log, and staying flexible, you can create and sustain training momentum.
