Attack!

There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind.

- C.S. Lewis

I felt so discouraged after Saturday's workout. It felt hard. I wanted to give up. But, I couldn't. I can't quit. Not now. Not ever.

I've just finished my second work out of the week. I feel strong!

I was so ready for Monday's workout. I was mentally and physically prepared to tackle it. I attacked! I felt amazing! I felt strong! Today's workout was no different. It was much harder and I felt just as much zeal about it as I felt on Monday. Granted, I will be completely unable to move my arms for the next few days...

The difference this week  has been the pre-workout preparation. I have to know I can do it. I have to eliminate all possibilities of giving up. Mentally I have to be ready to attack. Physical preparation is proving to require more planning than I'd anticipated. I have to workout before dinner, otherwise, it will never get done, or it will get done poorly.

Tonight as I was working out I felt it. I envisioned it. This entire process is bringing me to the strong body I want and need. I felt what that feels like. I envisioned with that looks like. 

Bring it on.
