What's been your biggest sticking point in lifting?

I was never able to get good definition in my chest. No matter how many dumbbell flies I did, I could never get that defined look. It wasn't a huge deal, since I was never going for that jacked bodybuilder look anyways. But, that barrel chest would have been nice.

Everyone's biggest sticking point has always been lack of consistency

diet, love lifting but hate cooking and stressing about eating clean, my diet is overall better than average person’s but never could really stick with clean legit bodybuilder diet which always kept me from being as lean and cut as I probably could be if I stuck with a strict diet
