You must go to the point of exhaustion, then go on. That way the body figures out, ?We?ve got to build up more strength if that crazy mind is going to drive this hard!? If you always quit when you are merely tired, you will never gain. Once you let the body tell the mind when to quit, you are whipped for sure. You can not gain by listening to the body.
