No Gains Without Pains
No pain, no gain (or "No gain without pain") is a proverb, used since the 1980s as an exercise motto that promises greater value rewards for the price of hard and even painful work. Under this conception competitive professionals, such as athletes and artists, are required to endure pain (physical suffering) and stress (mental/emotional suffering) to achieve professional excellence. Medical experts agree that the proverb is mostly ineffective for exercise
A version of the phrase was crafted by Benjamin Franklin, in his persona of Poor Richard (1734), to illustrate the axiom "God helps those who help themselves":
Industry need not wish, as Poor Richard says, and he that lives upon hope will die fasting. There are no gains, without pains...
In the phrase, Franklin's central thesis was that everyone should exercise 45 minutes each day.[21]
