How
do I get the strength to get myself out of bed and train even though I
sometimes feel like my body’s energy is on empty?
I’m
not gonna lie, there’s day where the idea of having to go the gym is just so
unappealing to me. Having to do that cardio is the last thing that I want to
put myself through.
So
what makes me push myself to do it?
Waking
up in the morning, going on Facebook and seeing you guys liking and commenting
on my pics, blog posts and statuses really gives me my morning boost to get up
and do what I have to do. I feel that I am here not only to better myself but
to inspire my fans. Just seeing some of the motivational pictures you guys post
or the “likes” you have put is enough to get me out the house and down at the
gym. I mean, the way I see it, I don’t really have an excuse to sit and whine
and bitch when I can see that you guys are also pushing hard and working out.
What
about when it comes down to pumping that iron? How do I manage to lift such
heavy weights even though at times it could be considered almost impossible?
For me, lifting weights is a type of therapy; I gather together all the
negative thoughts, feelings and emotions I have, e.g. past mistakes I’ve made,
failures in terms of not achieving a past goal and combine them together to
create an intense energy which allows me to have the power to lift those
weights.
For
me, it’s all about using what you have experienced in your past to better your
present.
Love
peace and big muscles.
