Which day are you mentally strongest

Just curious how everyone feels mentally training throughout the week. Are you mentally the strongest at the beginning of the week versus the end?

I would have guys say they couldn't understand how I could train legs on Friday after working all week. It doesn't bother me, it seemed like I focused more because I didn't have anything else to think about because I didn't have to work for the next two days.

usually by the end of the week, the 3 am stuff has caught up to me. nothing a little thermo won't take care of. if I feel out of focus, maybe I will just lift lighter that day..

weekend when I don't have to work next day and can use more energy and gyms less crowded.

I live on fri sat and sundays and take Mondays off as its a mad house and everyone is tired from coming back to work.

I squat or do chest on sundays

since I work from home, every day I go to the gym is a good day simply because I get to get out of the house. Plus, being "on" makes me want to go to the gym.

Thursdays and Fridays are my best days. I would think weekends would be the best but I get lazy on weekends.

thursdays are my mental strong point, i follow a 2 on 1 off 2 on 2off schedule, so weekend im off, and im pretty siked up by monday but im off on wedsdays and go back thursday and this is my mental strong day as it was only one day off and im still pumped from monday and tuesday, but monday is a close second, and 2nd becuase my body doesnt feel exactly on point after 2 days off, strange hsit isnt it, how everyone has their ways!

my weakest mental day would have to be fridays which is my leg day as well and it use to be my strong mental day cause my old gym i could wear short shorts or tights so i loved doing legs cause i could see them blowing up, butnow im in a new gym with a bunch of primadonnas i just cant bring myself to wearing my tights or short shorts in this gym, and if i cant see it working (the body part that it) then It bothers me and throws me off a tas

anyone else liek that? about needing to see the body part ur working out to get realy into it, or so it seems

I like training legs with shorts so I can see the muscles working too. I definitely feel like i have better workouts when i can see the muscles work.

Who you kidding, you gotta train legs in shorts cuz they're too big to fit inside sweatpants!

i wish i could get passed the seaweed wrap, other than that i think i could eat it. i'm a pretty picky eater so whenever i can find a new food that's pretty healthy i like to try it. it's been about sim months since i last tried it so maybe i'll try it again soon.
