Quit Muscle vs. Grit Muscle

Quit Muscle vs. Grit Muscle

From Professor Vinch | Budo Martial Arts – Coconut Creek, FL

At some point in your child’s martial arts journey, they’re going to say it:
“I don’t wanna go today.”

And that’s the moment that matters most.
Because every time we let them skip the hard stuff, we’re unknowingly building their quit muscle. It gets stronger. It gets easier to use.

But when we help them push through?
That’s when the grit muscle starts to grow.

Grit is what teaches kids to show up even when they don’t feel like it. It’s how they learn that confidence comes from doing hard things, not from avoiding them. It’s how future leaders are built.

As adults, we’ve all had those days — the ones where we didn’t feel like training, working, or facing the day. But when we show up anyway, we grow. We get stronger. And on the other side of that resistance? Pride. Power. Progress.

That’s what I want for your kids.
