"Anyone who has done a sport knows that if you want to achieve a good result, be ready to get a daily dose of pain. At first it seems that this is completely unnecessary, that this only makes your muscles ache, but with time you start to understand that this is part of the programme. Without feeling pain and soreness, you cannot gain lightness and strength. There comes a moment when you realise that without that pain, you cannot achieve the results you want."
