Raising The Bar

I think you hit the nail on the head there buddy, I think I'm missing a purpose.

I think you hit the nail on the head there buddy, I think I'm missing a purpose. I need to find a strength sport to play or something

Do you remember the "Purpose" and "What this was for" at the beginning? How about taking the benefits if this original purpose (which brought you to the place you are), and change it (or bring it along for the ride) by taking the benefits that weight training has provided (and will continue to provide) and apply this in your life for a worthwhile purpose? WHAT really DRIVES CCR inside when it comes to training? How could you take this and apply it in other areas in life to have a "Flip-Back" effect on your training?

(I posted this just after your other post)
 
Put on a really tight shirt and go to a mall or, even better, a bar, er, pub for your UKers.

Watch the women check you out out of the corner of their eye.

I look after my daughter on my own on every day off I get so I think women look at me as a father figure rather than baby maker I'm afraid. Plus, my body shape is out of fashion over here, women are going for the skinny dudes, like David Beckham. Nice idea though

Good knowledge on the Pub thing :)
 
My original purpose was to not be skinny. 15 months and 60lbs weight gain later I'm not so skinny anymore.

I wonder how you get into boxing?

Well, its sounds as if you may have reached the "cross road" or the "fork in the road" because maybe you feel you have "met" your goals. You were once at this same place when you started, but had much room to grow...and knew this "truth" in the heart very well, and it has pushed you to the present day. Now, your armed, and new and improved, and wondering which road to take. This will take you to decide of course, take this bag of bricks that you have learned in your path to the fork in the road, look inside yourself and be brutal honest and find what DRIVES you with the bag of bricks, and take the road.
 
Naw........Old and blind as a fricken bat.......I never read your log. :)

Now......you: be young, eyes wide open, and fly off like a eagle. I dont like CCR with "two sets of LIPS"...........I like the old rough and tough, to the point, no excuses, CCR we know and love.........ROCK ON! :) (I gave you a present.......dont let me down...for what its worth)

You join a boxing club. Avoid the fitness crap, if their website don't have mentions of tournament winnings or at least participation, you don't want to go there. Not that you need to compete, but you want to join a club where they have the attitude they train to win fights.
 
Yeah, cool article.

Feeling good about what you do is great and all, but it just won't bring the kind of motivation you need to get results in any walk of life. It just fails when you're faced with something that is boring or tough with little instant gratification.

The biggest daily motivation for me is the knowledge that an hour wasted not being anabolic you'll never get back - so eat and eat on schedule. A missed or halfassed training session is never coming back, you can't catch up or cram in more sessions next week. Overeating and gaining unnecessary fat, it just shortens the bulk period and that's never coming back.

And I just hate myself when I've set a goal and fail to do what i very well know is necessary to get there.
 
I've just come back after an hour at the gym and in that time I've been repped twice; this must be what it's like being Chillen :)

When I first started in my weight loss quest, I read that article. It angered me deep, but in a good way. Now I hold alot of it and other things inside, but in a modified sort of way. Controlled and recognized anger is good when applied the right way.

Now back away from being a sissy........:)

Being Mad can make one Glad when you use the weight room as a launch Pad instead of taking off from the Kotex Pad and being Sad; So if this gets you angry, too fricken Bad because I am Sad that you are not Glad and you must become a Grad by throwing away your Kotex Pad............

My dear friend, I hope your pissed today.........
