Another week in the book…..
Well another week is officially in the book andIcan’t be more pleased. In the gym the weights are starting to move easier and at the same time they are goin up. I do still have some tenderness in the shoulder, but I ma adjusting fire and doin what is needed to remedy the situation. I am still takin it slow and easy, which is a hard thing for me to do. I have always went balls out, but this new concept of working out is new to me. From time to time I still find myself trying to push the envelope and I back off. Currently I am working out 5 days a week, while doing cardio and abs every other day. Still not a fan of distance running, but what can ya do….
Hopefully bu the beginning of the new year I’ll be better prepared to get a little bit more intense with things. I still cannot do any benching movements, at least not until the middle of next month, so hammer strength has become my partner. The workouts regardless feel good and I am starting to see subtle changes…..but as always I want more.
Other than that, Indiana weather sucks ass. Snow one day, freezing the next, then it’ll change to rain, and then its in the high 40’s……I swear one day I am outta here for good. But once again what can you do. My kids are still young and have as strong of ties here as I do, so we will grin and bear it…..for now ….lol
Home life and marriage is yet another fun filled and depressing story. The wife that I knew is not the one I am with today. We have been constantly fighting and at each others throats for quite some time now. Makes it really hard to focus on the gym and goals that I have set for myself. I at times wonder why in the Hell I ever got re-married. Why did I not just do the whole bachelor thing for awhile, just chill and focus on my kids and myself. I have never really truly been a bachelor or single man for that matter. I think the longest I went alone was a month two months tops…..Who knows, not me, and I am just ramblin…sorry to get off base.
Anyways, before I get all mental and what not I am pounchin out and egressing. As always I will keep you posted. Stay TUFFF……BTW, have a safe and happy holiday season…

Glad to hear that you’re pushing the weights easier now - always a good feeling, no?
However, sorry to hear about the marital problems - major bummer man. (trust me, I know….5 kids and two ex-wives…HAHAHAH!)
Lifting seem to be my only escape sometime, so when you get to the gym just let the routine melt away that stress - it’ll save you from having a heart-attach - trust me! Good luck, brother
