Blood against Iron.

After a serious year and a half of hitting the gym hard, I decided to take a week off.  Over the week I felt bigger…like I put on some muscle mass, and people told me I was looking jacked. So today was my first day back, and I used a new full body routine.  What a freaking killer!!! I puked after the workout and it was extremely demanding.  I don’t know how I was able to make it through the damn thing but I did.

Okay…so I’ve been working out consistantly for a little over a year now. I know its not that long. But I have seen big results and I continue to transform my body. I say consistantly because I’ve gone through phases of being in and out of the gym for a about 4 years. However, I have never been so commited and thus I have never been in better shape, even though I’m bulking up right now. The issue is, and I’m sure alot of you muscle heads out there feel the same "when is it every enough"? I’ve set small goals, and I’ve achieved them. Now I’m setting bigger and newer goals and from the looks of it I’m already thinking that those goals will be obtained and I won’t be satisfied. Its rare that you meet people in the gym that say "I’m just maintaining". I feel that as I reach my goals I discover new things that I’d like to work on, or I’m just not completely happy with how I look. I finds this excellent because goals are what motivites us. So if this is the case, at what point to we say "I’m just maintaining now." Is that just another way of saying I’m not motivated
