-JB-’s Perpetual Journey

I feel, especially now post surgery, very tiny. Atrophy sucks!  I have lost a few pounds, but not much.  Can’t wait to get well and do deadlifts again.  

Yeah, I feel tiny.  But I don’t compare myself to anyone else. No one else is like me, I am like no one else. When I look around my gym, I see posters of up-and-coming bodybuilders (like Frank McGrath). Why the hell would I want to compare myself to them? It’s only gonna make me feel smaller. I have goals, visions. I know what I want my body to look like. I see where I am now and constantly think “I’ve got a loooong way to go.” That’s the reason I feel tiny. This is also why those of use dedicated to this sport are not like others. We can critique ourselves and be unhappy with the way we look or with a lagging muscle just like the rest of the world. We, however, are ALWAYS doing something about it. We’re never satisfied. Constant improvement - that’s the name of the game. We are not afraid to change and reform our bodies.

Keep pushing…
