PHENOM DAY IN THE GYM!!!

Today was a fantastic day in my most favorite place; the gym! There are a couple of reasons why, so let me explain.

Reason number 1: Pre workout-  I've known about pre-workout forever. However, I have never tried it before today and I am mad at everyone who truly knew its power and kept it from me or did not fully explain what it would do. LOL!  I felt like a gazillion bucks and feel that it gave me some extra GO!!! My cheeks, eyebrows, arms, and tongue were tingling but it wasn't bad and I only had 1 scoop with more water than was intended (first time jitters).






Reason number 2: Jerome Brantley and Sylvia Flores were both in the gym with me and Jerome killed us with an awesome workout. We also hit the pads and worked on my defense a bit. I haven't had that type of intense workout without weights in a great while (since Jerome's last fight). One thing that I really love about Jerome is that he does not accept ANY excuses at all!  He does not want to hear what you can't do and will call you on your BS. I don't even try anymore but Sylvia... HAHA!!! She will learn!!! She started out by trying to get out of doing push-ups, and if you haven't done them in decades they are hard, well she ended up doing 10 which is SUCCESS!!!






Reason 3: Saw Jen again in the gym today (she's the one that turned me on to the pre-workout) and she gave me a scoop of her pre-workout and was excited for me once I told her I was feeling it. LOL!! She's like the pre-pusher!


On this 29 day, NO REST gym commitment I feel I am off to a great start! I have increased my food intake (as I was not eating enough to sustain my body and the gym WORK I do), I'm getting in more protein, I'm on a new quest to get rid of this last bit of body fat that I have, and I'm learning about supplements that are going to help me have more effective workouts. Best thing is, I'm feeling GREAT and I'm feeling supported. Can't ask for much more.






TTFN!
