Mentality

Strength is seemingly to be masculine, or so I was taught.

Boys are strong, and girls are.. Not.

I believed I could do anything, so eventually I did.

I made guys uncomfortable when I was stronger or when I would lift.

But I learned there was more to it.

Strength is lying on the floor contemplating your life, but continuing to live.

Strength is allowing yourself to feel the pain and using it constructively.

Strength is pushing yourself.

Strength is being resilient.

Strength is holding on.

Strength is telling yourself you will endure.

So yes, strength can be a sort of training.

But strength is and always will be a mental game.
