FIELD NOTES // 008 - The Weight No One Sees

Most people only count what’s on the bar.

The plates.

The reps.

The PRs.


But some of us…

we carry more than that.

 


 

We bring doubt into the gym.

Pressure from people who never show up.

Fear we haven’t shaken.

Scars we never talk about.


And none of it gets logged.

None of it gets praised.

But it’s there, every time we step under the weight.

 


 

This isn’t about your numbers.

This is about what no one sees — but you still lift.


The kind of weight that doesn’t fall off when you rack the bar.

The kind that lives in your chest, not your hands.

 


 

You don’t need a coach to notice.

You don’t need a crowd to clap.


You just keep showing up.

And every time you do,

you move something heavier than steel.
