Where you are mentally will drastically transform where you will be physically. In this episode I break down my story with mental health/happiness and how you can overcome anything you're dealing with mentally through fitness. What I want you to do is think of you and only you. There are many people on social media who seem to be happy, fit, have it all, but are internally depressed, angry, anxious, ect. This is where that person who is shredded, lean, and in shape tells their best friend that they aren't happy with how they look, and that friend laughs because well look at them. They're shredded, why would he/she not like how they look.    We all deal with things on different levels and react differently to every stressor in this world. But when you focus on you and only you because no one else is going to care for your health more than you should. No one is going to understand exactly what you're feeling. You need to find happiness within you to finally look at yourself with happiness and not anger, hate, sadness, regret, ect.    Key takeaways: My story and how mental health took control of me How training can also be self abuse if you are not happy with who you are and doing this to better who you are How training drastically helped my anger, depression, regret How happiness is found within yourself through fitness/training Never believe social media and what "fitness" looks like. Go through your path in this life to the fullest and focus on YOU   If you have any questions you want answered or wanting to talk to me directly, head over to: https://www.trainhardlivestrong.com/ask Check out all our partnerships: https://www.trainhardlivestrong.com/Partnerships Flex Pro Meals: https://www.flexpromeals.com/ : Code/ TrainHard to save 20% OFF Host: https://www.instagram.com/matthew_fitness_trainer/ Athletic Beings Training & Apparel: www.athleticbeings.com / www.athleticbeingstraining.com Podcast Website: www.trainhardlivestrong.com/podcast LiquidIV: Liquidiv.com / Code: TrainHard / Save 25% off your entire purchase FNX Fit: https://fnx.grsm.io/TrainHard / Code:Trainhard / Save 15% off your entire purchase Flex Pro Meals / 20% off your 1st order / Code: TrainHard: https://www.flexpromeals.com/ YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/c/MatthewFitnessTrainer Train with Coach Matt Anywhere: www.EliteHIITPerformance.com
