Fitness Assault: 12 Motivational Workout Videos!

If you want to make big changes to your body and your mind, you need inspiration to do the work. Here are 12 awesome videos that provide a whole week's worth of motivation!

In bodybuilding and in life, we constantly search for what drives us. What is your fire? What propels your need? It's not just enough to walk into the gym, pick up a few weights, and leave. You're there to make changes. You're there to grow. It's difficult to do either without a heavy dose of motivation medicine.

Motivation can come in many forms: a pre-workout drink, your favorite song, or even a few stinging slaps to the face. Our favorite medium is videos. In them you can find the encouragement to be better today than you were yesterday. Get inspired to out-curl CT Fletcher, be bigger than Jay Cutler, beat Rich Froning, or arm-bar Ronda Rousey.

Watch these videos before you train, or include them in your breakfast. We're certain that at least one of them will spark your need to assault your workout and reclaim your goals.
