The Chronicles of “B”

Well my intensity level is at an all time high but so are my aching bones and muscles.  Since I’ve set a definate date to compete I’ve been pushing myself harder than ever.  One of my kids favorite forms of entertainment these days is to watch me work out because they think it’s funny when I scream, "ONE MORE DAMN IT!!" on my last few reps.  Oh, and they really think it’s a scream when I call myself a big pu$$y if I can’t push up that last one!!!  I’m doing everything now to failure and even cheat a few reps if I can.  I’m even doing my abs to failure which is no easy task let me tell ya!!!  And I don’t know if any of ya reading this has ever pushed their abs to failure but let me tell ya it hurts like hell.  I find myself saying, "Nine months away…just one more damn it….all the time.  "One more sprint Bryan…..gotta burn fat…..gotta get big!!!!   Yes Doctor I talk to myself all the time!!  LOL!!  I really hope I can keep this intensity level through to April and even the sore muscles aren’t that bad cause it’s telling me that I’m making progress. 

When I used to run Marathons and going back to my High School cross country day’s I was always told that if I didn’t feel like puking or didn’t actually hurl after a race then you didn’t push hard enough so I guess that mentality is burned in me and thats how I approach weight lifting.  If I’m not slightly dizzy or if my delts of biceps don’t feel like they’re gonna explode when I’m done with that set then I’m not hitting it hard enough.    Like my signature say’s……Pain is just fear leaving your body!!  And right now the only thing I fear is not being ready in April
