Making the Connection

Making the Connection by Ava Cowan
So today was leg day for me. And to be honest I have gone through some rough patches personally within the last few months. That is just a part of life. The ups and downs. You have a choice in life, to dig deeper or give up. I am a strong woman and I chose to dig deeper.

How do you do that? I mean, when you are lying in bed and don’t want to get up, what do you do? You get up, put your workout clothes on, eat your meal, and get in the car. You show up no matter what. That is what a champion does. And each one of you has a champion inside, you just have to find it.

So I go to the gym, and I prepare for battle. In my mind I picture each and every fiber as I move through repetitions. I see in my mind exactly what I want that muscle to look like in the end. When I reach my goal. I welcome the pain and my muscles going to failure. You see, I have made the connection. From my mind to my heart and my soul. With each rep I push the love, the pain, the happiness, the anger, the joy everything I have carefully throughout the movement.

Does it sound odd? It might, but I have made the connection. Beyond proper form and technique into a realm of a soulful connectedness. It is living with passion and moving through any and every situation, and turning it into your friend. Simple, deep, delicious. You may want to try it.

Ava Cowan is Ms. Figure America 2007. She is also the official Fitness Expert and Spokesperson for MyBodySite.com, a WNSO Professional Figure Athlete and a fitness trainer.
