I watched this week’s episode of Heroes last night, and then Juno. Strangely enough, the entire time I was watching them I felt this odd excitement about going to the gym in the morning. Very subtle, but I was kinda looking forward to it, and was happy to know I had it to look forward to in the morning. Pretty damn weird for me, as I usually have a weird dread/anxiety knowing I have to get up early. Don’t know if that feeling will happen again tonight, but no matter, as I enjoyed the hell out of it last night.
This morning’s workout was pimptacular. I felt good and sore in my legs and abs from earlier in the week, but not too sore. Just sore enough to make getting into my body easier and to really work out the shoulders and pull muscles. Reverse flies and shoulder shrugs were the highlight for me today, I was just damn spot on doing them. Dips went very well today as well.
The other somewhat exciting thing that happened yesteday is that I internally commited to doing this once a year in perpetuity. If the tradeoff for feeling this strong, healthy, confident, and grounded in my body is a paltry 12 weeks out of my year, I’m so in. It’s totally worth it. I haven’t lost a ton of weight or anything, but I FEEL strong, which is what’s important to me.
I can’t friggin WAIT for my 10:30 shake. Eating is soooo much more exciting for me when its happening consciously!
Rock.
