#34: The Only Competition That Matters

Arnold's Pump Club
About this episode

Many people like to ask, "Why do you compete?" But the more important question is, "Who are you competing against?" In this episode, Arnold discusses what most people misunderstand about competition, and how to reset your focus for not just better results, but also more happiness and self-fulfillment. You'll also learn about a new study that might finally solve the question about the best time of day to workout.
