Back when I still bothered with PRs, I would come up with something heroic to think of when doing a lift.
>bench press was pushing a car full of kids out of a flooded street while they screamed for help
>deadlift was grabbing the hand of an old lady hanging off a cliff and lifting her to safety while she cried for help
(I tried thinking of lifting up a younger lady/cute girl, but then I realized I don't really care that much about young women)
>squat was lifting a car that had fallen on someone
>OHP was lifting someone out of a pit or a hole in the ground
The key was always to keep the image of the person in trouble in my mind throughout the lift, and if I failed I'd make myself imagine them falling to their death or whatever. It made the next attempt way easier.

I've literally said "we're all gonna make it brah" out to get me through sets that I thought were literally going to kill me.

Yep unironically. I usually try to hype up and start thinking stuff like
>I have to outrun that n-word
>If I were in a war scenario I gotta run more than this
>I gotta be better than some n-word
>I can lift more than a n-word

It's usually something like that, anything that makes me feel powerful because i'm white

don't think about running away from nogs, think about running towards them with a club. running away is fucking gay. think about the pleasure of crushing their disgusting black skulls in and let the desire to kill fuel you

When I'm approaching failure I think about D-day and the men storming the beaches.

I just refuse to stop because I think it’s weak
