OK not like literally, figuratively… Yesterday, I got to the gym and was excited to be in the gym, but something was a little off. I couldn’t tell right away so I ignored it. I began my workout doing pull-ups. Pull-ups are my absolute favorite exercise, you can ask anybody. I love PULL-UPS and any variation I can come up with or see. Completed 1st set and all of a sudden I just felt dead. I mean NO ENERGY no life in me, no edge nothing. It was almost as if I had not taken a day off from the gym. So I LEFT the GYM!
NAH LOL, I am playing, I pushed through the workout, I am not going to let that be a deterrent. I have a goal and I am going to meet it, but I had to mentally dig down because I could have laid it down and taken a nap. I felt good afterwards but during whoa, death.
With that said no food no energy right? Well my caloric intake is low, especially for me. I am still eating 6 meals a day (for those of you who didn’t know) but I burn through those calories quick. (Man what I wouldn't give for a BIG OLE' HEARTY MEAL!!!) Once I burn through them I am starving, but I have to wait my 2-3 hours to eat again. I cannot eat too soon and if I eat too late I am missing a window of opportunity to fuel my metabolism. Oh and for those that don’t believe in the frequency of 6 times a day, you need to try it and see if it helps achieve your goals. I BET if you eat right it will help.
Well its time to suck it up, find the energy and head back to the gym. I got shoulders today. Let's see if I can get it done in 45 minutes or less. Going to be tough but hey just another challenge in order to reach my goal.

Man, I tell you, I want to have sex with that loaded baked potato right now. Ha ha ha.
