Dear All,

It's that exam time of year again and I was looking for a suitable Chinese expression to get the students a little more fired up when they come back to school tomorrow.  I was thinking of  that old gym slogan,  "No pain, no gain"    The only translation I could find is 
不劳则无获  which is a bit too 文言, don't you think?  Can anyone suggest an equivalent that's got more frequent-use vocabulary or sentence patterns in it?

Hope you've all had restful breaks,
加油 for the term ahead!
