Friday's Fitness Challenge: Go Heavy or Go Home!!!! That is all.
Going from nearly 300lbs, lacking energy, and motivation to where I am today is what's documented here. The highs, the lows and all experienced in between. This is my journey; as it continues.

Lose the Fear!!!
I worked out with a couple of VERY BIG guys this morning. I am working on improving my bench press so Taurus, and yes he's strong like a bull, invites me to lift with them today. I did okay..... :-) I have a ways to go before I'm benching 250lbs. All I did was lift this morning and completed a 2.5 hour session which included squats (140lbs), deadlifts (270lbs), overhead press (95lbs), bench press (125lbs), leg press (315lbs), and a ton of back and shoulder sets. I have a new mentality and motto as of today....NEVER FEAR THE WEIGHT! The things that go on in my mind when weight is being added to the bar is crazy. I am my own worse enemy and I hinder my abilities to lift more. Kristin told me today, you tell yourself you can't i. Your head, but it also comes out of your mouth; stop it!!!! As of now I will. I will never fear the weight again.
