  • Hi this is Tutor Nick P and this is Proverbs 109. The proverb today is no pain no

  • gain. Okay. Let's take a look at the note here. This proverb basically means that

  • one must work hard and suffer in order to advance and make progress. Yeah.

  • Definitely. The origin of this quote comes from Ben Franklin. Yeah. He is one of

  • my favorite ones to actually give quotes from. Obvious, so many good quotes. In an

  • article titled "The Way to Wealth" in 1758 and here's the quote. "There are no gains

  • without pain. All right. Let's continue. Jane Fonda you know, the famous

  • actress you know, daughter of Henry Fonda. Although she's a senior citizen herself

  • these days. Jane Fonda popularized this proverb even more with her aerobics

  • video in the 1980s. Fitness centers often had a sign on the wall with this proverb

  • as a type of encouragement for working out. Yeah I think many of them still do

  • today. So it wouldn't be uncommon if you went to a fitness center or gym and they

  • have this kind of as a motto or a sign on the wall to encourage people to work

  • harder. "No pain no gain. " So if don't you know have some aches and pains from

  • working out , you probably won't get stronger or lose weight or build

  • yourself up. Okay. And let's look at some examples here. Okay good. Example number

  • one. If you're really serious about losing weight. You must start an exercise

  • program as well as cutting down on your food intake. Again remember, no pain no

  • gain. Or number two. If you want to compete professionally you must practice

  • for at least five hours a day. It is must. No pain no gain. So that's the way we

  • usually use it. We always add it to something like that. To get the point

  • across. That you know. I know, I know it's uncomfortable I know you

  • don't want to do it, but you're not really going to advance and not going to get

  • ahead. If you don't put in some, if you don't actually go through some pain in

  • order to get ahead. All right. Anyway, I hope you got it. I hope it was clear. Thank you for

  • your time. Bye-bye.
