Challenging Fear Uncertainty & Doubt March 18, 2008

Digg! this story.

A long time ago, I developed a fear of doing workouts using the bar. And, in particular, any movement where you were on your feet, e.g. squats, military presses, etc.
With the workouts I’ve been doing over the last year, I’ve had to confront this fear, albeit a little at a time. Lately, I’m beginning to notice that I actually *like* working w/the bar. I love the results!
I’ve also become a convert to the notion that the benefits one gains by doing load-bearing exercises on your feet are pretty hard to beat, especially for your core. Now, I’m not giving up sit-ups any time soon, but there’s no doubt that the day after I do load-bearing work on my feet, my core is sore. There’s definitely something to this!
