General update…
Well, my personal life is completely rat f**ked! I am tired of all of the crap and have decided to get a divorce. "I’m sorry" is not needed. I have thought about it, prayed about it and once I decided that I have to do this for my happiness, I am finally at peace. That is not saying that I am "happy"…divorce sucks and no one gets out unaffected. A lot of you have read my earlier posts to know what has happened in the past…well, the lies continue and her inability to not talk to her "boyfriend" has pushed me beyond the point of trying to salvage anything. I can’t pretend that her lies and belief that falling in love with someone while married is NOT cheating. I am doing okay, keeping my head about me…it has killed my motivation (but I am working on that). Enough of this dribble…let’s talk about training.
As I have stated before, my motivation has suffered, but I am surely trying to correct that issue. I am going to change my workout starting Monday…time to burn fat! I have put on some decent size, now I need to see what is under all of this disgusting fat! I am going to drop the weight and increase the reps, somewhere around the 15-20 range. I will rest only 30 seconds or so in between sets and do cardio twice a day.
I am going to put in my recruiting packet (and hopefully get picked up). I love the Army and the idea of having a job that I get to talk to people all day about it is just to good to pass up. I might be in the minority, but I look forward to helping the Army put the best possible people in to increase our fighting force.
Sorry for the ranting…until later…Jay

Rants helps you relieve stress. Good luck on your routines.

Hey Jay, turn that frustration into a laserbeam focus for blasting out your workouts.
1) Motivation is overrated & unreliable. It’s an emotion that goes up & down with life’s ups & down (like yours, right now). Motivation often FOLLOWS action, rather than precede it. Just do it…….you’ll ‘feel like it’ later. Rely on determination & persistence. As a soldier, I know you’ve got that.
2) Here’s a BIG THANKS for your service to this country. (Me: Navy….1987-93)
Keep charging Jay.
