You're Not Missing Out - Ep 22

Adam Timbrook | "If You Want This, Prove It" — How to Build Confidence Through DisciplineEveryone has a version of "normal" they think you should want. Adam Timbrook stopped listening.Adam is a record-holding powerlifter and the coach behind Timbrook Training System. He's squatted 600 pounds, deadlifted over 600, and built a coaching business — all before most people his age have figured out what they want to do. He doesn't drink. He doesn't go out. He skips the parties, turns down the invitations, and stays locked in while everyone around him says he's missing out. His response? "That's not the experience I'm seeking."But here's the thing about Adam — underneath all of that discipline is a guy who puts an insane amount of pressure on himself to prove that the sacrifices were worth it. His mom tells him she's proud of him no matter what. It doesn't matter. He still feels like he has to show her, show his family, show himself. That pressure has been there since middle school, and it's the engine behind everything he's built.If you've ever been the one who stays home while everyone else goes out, or if you've caught yourself wondering whether all the discipline is actually going to pay off — you're going to connect with this one. And if you're a parent watching your kid sacrifice everything for a goal and wondering what's really going on in their head, Adam might just tell you.What you'll hear in this episode:Why Adam says "that's not the experience I'm seeking" when people tell him he's missing outThe self-imposed pressure he's carried since middle school — and where it actually comes fromHow he flips a switch and becomes a completely different person in competitionA story he's almost never shared publicly that changes how you see his entire journeyHis approach to finding a win even when everything in a session feels offWhat he tells his coaching clients when their actions don't match their goalsThe three daily habits he refuses to skip no matter whatKey quote: "If you want to not be average, these sacrifices have to occur at some point."Connect with Adam: Instagram: @adam.timbrook10 TikTok: @TimbrookTrainingSystems Coaching: Timbrook Training SystemConnect with Sam: samnott.comSubscribe to Simple Wins on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
