MVP FITNESS 365

EAT. TRAIN. REST.

DAY 80 of 365

Just do it.

One of the things that has prevented me from posting recently has been how far behind I am with updating this site.  Using some form of twisted logic, I had so much to do that I did none.  It may seem to be common sense as you read this, but - and here comes the epiphany –  the more I put it off the further behind I got.  Bottom line …I have been overwhelmed.

I’ll get into that more as I begin to play catch up.  Right now, this is just another day in a string of 365 days.

Today started rather blah but ended with a bang.  I meant to get to the gym all day, but the previously mentioned stuff that has been getting in my way, well, got in my way.  By the time 9:30 rolled around, I knew if I didn’t get immediately out the door, I wasn’t going.  So I do what I usually do when facing that decision.  I put on my shoes.  At least half of the time, the mere fact that I have my shoes on is enough to move me forward.

I lifted upper body tonight.  Great, great workout.  When leg day rolls around, I have ZERO PROBLEM getting the intensity up enough to absolutely kill myself in my workout.  Upper body, on the other hand, has felt rather bland, safe - even easy.  Not tonight.  I can hardly move my arms, which if you have followed along for any length of time, you will know is a feeling I absolutely crave when I workout.  It’s almost like an addiction.  Few reading this will understand, but it’s ok.  I get it.

  1. Yeah, another post!!
    I know that feeling of three being so much stuff to do why start now because it will still be there and can be done in a little bit.
    Glad to hear it was a good workout!

  2. I have this paralyzing habit when there is just too much “noise” in my head. I tend to freeze up and get overwhelmed by the smallest details. I often bite off more than I can chew and end up not even getting started.

    I generally take a short while to snap out of it and usually I do so with organization. I am a HUGE list type of guy. Everything has to be mapped out to the smallest detail before I can begin (ie. this website).

    Debilitating some days. I don’t always enjoy being that way.
