In her Peloton bio, Olivia Amato says she likes to "lead by example." And that means never quitting — whether in a workout or in any goal you're trying to accomplish. "By staying with you throughout class, I can show you that sometimes, all it takes is getting out of your own way to accomplish your goals," she said.
Amato emphasized that philosophy in an interview with PopSugar. "I would never quit anything early, so why would I quit an exercise or workout three seconds early?" she said. "In reality, the only person I am negatively affecting if I quit early is me."
According to Amato, not ending a workout early — even if it's just a few seconds — also teaches you how to push through and get comfortable being uncomfortable. "The magic happens when you push through that uncomfortable feeling," she said (via PopSugar). "If you are used to giving up early, dig deeper, and push through and see what happens!"
Luckily, she offered some sound advice for any of us who struggle to complete a demanding workout or project: It's all about really applying yourself to the task at hand, instead of taking the easy way out. As she told PopSugar, "Change starts with you. Honor your ability and the strength of your body and mind!"
