The Weights Will Never Be Conquered

“I have to stay humble, or I go right back to hell. The minute I think I’ve conquered it, I’ve lost it.”
-Muscular Development

Don’t forget that this holds true outside of the gym too!

The Road to Success

Thursday, December 3rd, 2009

The road to success isnt straight
Theres a curve called Failure
A loop called Confusion
Speed bumps called Friends
Red lights called Enemies
Caution lights called Family

But if you have a spare called Determination
And an engine called Perseverance
You will make it to a place called SUCCESS

The Comeback

Tuesday, December 1st, 2009

After an emotionally trying year that resulted in general apathy, I have finally reached the point where I could no longer stand what I had become, and have taken back control of my life. Chief among these actions was the decision to clean up my diet and get back in the gym.

What a difference it makes! After only a week, I have added muscle, lost fat, and feel 100% better overall. Not only that, but my sleeping patterns have returned to normal. Previously, I would wake up after only 3-4 hours of sleep – not healthy, let alone optimal – but now that I’m training again, I’m usually sleeping 8-9 a night. :)
