In Search Of....

Today was BACK DAY!!! I was up and at it early this morning and spent 3 hours in the gym. It felt really good until that drive to the city for school. It's like I hit a brick wall! I think I was nodding in class (well I was catching myself) and I'm continuing to struggle now that I'm at work. Who knows.

Anyhoo... BACK DAY was a success! Deadlifts are my first lifting love. When I first started lifting, I was focused on lifting heavy and I got up to deadlifting 315lbs.  I then tore my gastrocnemius which put me out for a long time and I lost all my gains. Although I like being able to lift heavy, my focus now is on losing fat mass and developing lean muscle. I was graciously reminded today that my goals are SUPER important! Therefore I am going to REALLY start focusing on my goals and doing what I need to do in the gym to meet those goals. Yes, I GO HARD in the gym but I probably need to streamline and focus more intently on a FitPlan that is more aligned with assisting me in meeting my goals.





I know one thing that I HATE is not having a consistent and serious lifting partner. I was reminded of this by an old gym friend that is now in Thailand. We used GET IT IN daily! Not having a consistent lifting partner is one of the reasons I joined the Powerlifting Gym a couple of years ago. However, the hours of that gym are very odd. Actually, the hours for most independent gyms where I would have the opportunity to work out with others have hours that will not align with my school and work schedule. So, I'm a little bit stressed about this, but I can't let it stall me out. I don't have time for self-pity or anything infringing on my PEACE. On that note...



I'm going to revamp my plan over the remainder of this week with a little help from my friend 3reFit (He doesn't know this yet, but I can always depend on him to come to my FitRescue even though he says I'm an HABITUAL DEVIATOR). I will begin implementing the plan on Sunday and it will be a complete success. :-)  Until then... I am in search of an individual(s) that can fit my lift schedule and are SERIOUS and CONSISTANT!


Until an ACCEPTABLE and CONSISTENT lifting partner(s) is found, I will continue putting in that WORK!!! AS USUAL!!!
