Day 9 was rest day, we ran out of some stuff so we went grocery shopping for some chicken and other healthy food. Also went to GNC to pick up some protein bars for snacks and to curb eating sweets when that sugar rush happens.

Day 10 was Saturday 1/20/18 I went to the gym for about 2 hours and 25 mins. The results you see will highly depend on your discipline in life. Consistency is the key to success. That is why I am trying to make going to the gym every other day or 3-4 times a week a priority. Fitness, Bodybuilding, Crossfit or any other sport is a marathon and not a sprint. And you don’t win a marathon by sprinting for a few minutes and then giving up and success in some of the most meaningful things in life are marathons as well.
Long term success, regardless if it’s in the gym or in life depends on your discipline and how consistent you are. Realize this and incorporate it into your (mental) strategy. Work towards long term success and be mentally prepared to work and train hard every single day. Going to the gym, eating well, sleeping well, thinking positively and being healthy  – every single day – WILL lead to success. Be consistent, never give up and train harder!
That is exactly what I am doing I am choosing healthy options for food, taking my vitamins, and doing what I can to make healthy choices. I have cut out sodas, orange juice which is my favorite thing to drink I used to drink tons and tons now I am drinking it in moderation to cut down on my sugar intake. I have been getting foods that are not processed, no junk food, just healthy organic and foods with ingredients I can pronounce and know exactly what it is.

My goal is to become Strong as fuck, healthy, fit, have lots of energy and be able to keep up with my four year old. Every single day, in the gym – I want to train hard to become stronger. To make those gains. To be better than yesterday. So yes: Strong as fuck – that’s one of my goals for sure. It’s not a question of if, but when I’m going to crush my goals. This quote is ALL about that motivation I have got to have in order to get to where I want to be. That mental attitude and mind set that I need. I AM GOING TO CRUSH MY GOALS. And it’s not a question of if, but when. Well let’s get into my workout, I started off with the treadmill I made it 18 minutes. Still trying to get to my mini goal of 20 minutes I will make it, I will smash it. But for now I am happy I made it to 18 minutes again. I am trying to up it by 5 minutes every time I go to the gym. Then I moved on to the life cycle bike I made it to my mini goal of 10 minutes, so I am shooting for 15 minutes next time. Then I went to the dual pulley pulldown I used 27.5 lbs 5 sets x 10 reps. Then I went to the row machine and did 5 sets x 5 reps at 65 lbs. Then off to the chest press at 35 lbs 6 sets x 5 reps. Then off to the seated leg press I did three different exercises on this machine. The first one I did was a standard stance at 65 lbs for 5 sets x 10 reps. The second exercise I did was wide stance at the 65 lbs 5 sets x 10 reps. The last one I did was standard calve raises at 65 lbs 5 sets x 10 reps. I rest for 10-15 secs between each set. Lastly I went to the hip abductor outer thigh machine at 65 lbs for 5 sets x 10 reps and rested 10-15 seconds in between. After all that I was exhausted and I needed to stop. Don’t stop until you’re insanely fucking proud of yourself. Whatever you are doing, whatever you are working hard and training hard to accomplish. Don’t stop doing it until you are REALLY proud of yourself and what you’ve accomplished. That is how I felt after my workout. I am sad to say though my favorite headphones died half way through my workout. So I had to finish without my music to help motivate me. I love putting my headphones in and listening to music to turn off the world around me.
