Day 26 – Life Happens
Funny how you always start out with good intentions, working your butt off to reach a goal, and then BAM…Life Happens. What I’m referring to is all of those things that us responsible adults have to try to fit into our schedules that don’t normally belong there. Maybe it’s a tax audit by the IRS; maybe it’s searching for a new home; maybe it’s working 20 hours of overtime; maybe it’s taking care of some small things for an upcoming wedding; maybe it’s doctors appointments for a new baby-on-the-way….or maybe….it’s all of the above. Yeah, now you see where I’m coming from. And with a very small amount of intuition, you know where I’m going with this also.
I’VE BEEN SLACKING AGAIN. The last 3 weeks have resulted in only 2 workout days each. The 7-meal-per-day plan has shrunk down to about 4 meals a day, and the only positive thing I can say is that somehow the amount I can squat keeps increasing.
My last workout day (Thurs), I did 210 lbs. on the squats. It hurt like heck, but I did it. Afterward my back was pretty locked up, and it prevented me from doing some of the supplemental back exercises, but I can live with that. Hopefully by next post I will have some huge improvements in workout and diet to report.
