Music, focused, fixed, GO!

I have always been in love with weight lifting. I neglected what was best for my body for so long and now weight lifting is back in my life. I'm sure I like it more than cardio, but I know that I have to use them together for maximum results. Deadlifts are my absolute favorite, then the bench press, followed by the leg press, and finally squats. I am starting to find my groove when lifting that pretty much resembles the pic posted today. I have to have the music blasted, my hands have to be on the bar, my eyes have zeroed in on a spot, my body is in the correct position, and I just wait for the word GO! It's amazing how we can psych ourselves  to not do something. Well, it's time to use those same mental abilities to get motivated and make lifestyle changes. Remember, people can only support your decision to change but they can't make your change happen. Get up, get out, and get fit! You've got this! 
Today's Challenge: If you haven't already, incorporate weight training into your routine. Start light and impliment menouvers you are comfortable with. Add weight in 5 or 10 pound increments and choose a number of reps to accomplish. For example, if you choose the number 30, do as many reps as you can before resting then repeat until your rep number is reached. If you can crank out one more, go for it!
