i just did something i thought it was literally impossible for my body to do. my dad bought this spirulina. it is premium quality organic broken cell wall. its like algae protein. sounds tasty huh?
it only has 4g protein per tbs but it has tons of vitamins in it.

the first time i tried it was like a year ago. the first gulp i had, and i spit it out on the floor, ran to a sink and started spitting like crazy tryin to get it out of my mouth. some of the powder stuck on my teeth and i puked. i thought it was impossible for my body to accept it.

a couple minutes ago, i glanced at the bottle of spirulina and i said to myself that it is a gaol for me to drink a tbs of it.

it took me 20 minutes to get 1 tablespoon down. and like 5 cups of water. i had to pump myself up and get angry at it. this food wasnt going to beat me. lol i actaully got out my mp3 player and was listening to some fire up music. whatever it takes.

i just had to prove to myself that its all mental and that i can do it if my mind is strong.

i am actually making it a big goal for myself to get a tbs of it a day. strong mind>strong body

this was a mental achievement for me by far. so list your achievements so far. let me know what you have achieved! :)

haha dude i know what you mean...im gettin a little weird like that here lately ive been looking at foods that ive hated since i was little like green peppers and tomatoes and broccoli..and just felt like eating them just because i know theyre good for me..i think that you can make yourself like the taste of stuff you might have to train yourself to do so but its worth it in the end..plus itll make your diet a little less boring
 
LOL i know. i have no idea why i all of a sudden wanted to make myself eat the worst tasting thing iv ever tasted. but brocolli is good! i eat it raw. yesterday i also just started eating a lot of carrots for no reason. eating something while watching tv is fun.

yea i guess you can say im training myself to face my taste bud fears. its all in my head anyway. it makes me appreciate how good other things taste. like fruits!
 
haha true true..ive noticed one of the hardest things for me to do is down cottage cheese before bed..the taste isnt horrible..but the texture makes me wanna throw up after about the third bite lol..mind over matter i guess..im trying to forget about taste right now and only eat stuff that will help me reach my goals..stop giving into temptation so much

I gargle cottage cheese...mmmmm

I have a hard time coming up with complex carbs...could eat fruit/veggies/protein til the cows come home. Just don't put a bowl of brown rice or pasta in front of me. Blech.

Try Oatmeal. Stuff is so good :)

Man, if my family had money I would be living on Milk, whey protein, Oatmeal, fruits and vegetables. Its really hard to bulk-up or cut back in my house. Its near impossible. I have 3 brothers and a sister. My fathers just a security guard and my mother cleans houses every now and then. So as you can inmagine theres barely any food half the time! We haven't been grocery shopping in a long time because my Fathers company went down from some scandal and he hasn't been getting paid. They owe him about 2000+ dollars.

Here is what is in my house right now:
Soup
Whey Protein
Canned Chicken
Some peas
Pancake mix

Thats it :(

Anyway good job protein boy on the food. I remember when I had to get down whey protein for the first time. I'm used to it now. Anytime I get water I'll throw in a little whey protein.

care to share what burdens you bare?

what do you have to accomplish silent?

Haha, What burdens I bare? Wow, made it all dramatic and such lol...

Anyway, I know you're always telling me I'm all "mysterious" and stuff. So I hate to encourage that belief any further. But, I can not bare that which burdens my existence. I have put been into this position because of my own stupid mistakes. I will either raise and meet them or fail and know that my life was all a waste. Wish me luck...

Now, Doesn't that leave you in suspense...
 
if i have learned one thing in the past week it would include that you never know how bad someone has it.
because i cannot live a day in your life and have the same mindset.
and it is more of your mindset which determines how bad you have it rather than what the day has to bring.

and man i dont have any idea what you are going through. it could be one of the worst times you have in your life for all i know. and i may not be able to help you as much as i want.
but i know one thing for dam certain. that goals and dreams held onto deep inside a person combined with the unyielding, steadfast aspiration to make them come true no matter what, far outweighs any obstacle anyone can encounter.

i believe you can get through whatever is going on bro. i mean that.
and if i know you can get through it, then you better as hell aughta believe with me and make it true.

I have accomplished alot this year but it never seems like enough. Your always trying to get better and I just never seem satisfied with what I'm doing now.

At the end of the season I weighed 150 and could barely get 100 pounds up 1 time on the bench. Now I weigh 170ish and can bench my bodyweight. My squat has gone up too and my deadlift, just not enough though.
 
Today i got back from the doctor where i was getting my knee checked out. Turns out everything is fine. I started running latley and he said the ligaments are probaly just sore from that. So i came home worked out, started out with some dips, then went to powercleans. On the third set of my pc's, something ticked in my head that gave me alot of motivation and confidance. I got 115 up 4 times, compared to 3 the first set and 2 the 2nd set. It was cool :cool:
 
awesome bro!!! glad your knee is fine man.
nice i love dips.
and 1 little Q: to substitute power cleans, you just take out bent over rows right?

keep that motivation up man.
