You Better Get Your Mind Right!!!
That was the very phrase one of my old HS football coaches used..and I developed a strong hatred for it in a quick minute. He would tend to say that right before we did up-downs till we puked or ran sprints till we cried LOL. But you know, looking back on that, he couldn’t have been anymore on point with that phrase. Its been since 1999 that I have put on the pads and hit my opponents in the mouth, but I still remember the hard work I put into those years. Now, my opponent isn’t 6′3′’ 350 lbs..instead, its life and how it effects my own health..and I know I have to hit it in the mouth if I want to win (live longer).
Knowing that, I decided it was definitely time to "Get My Mind Right". By doing so, I started hitting the gym harder in the Cardio area for 2 months and lost 20 lbs. You may think that isn’t much but to a guy who has lived over half his life at 300+ lbs, breaking below that 300 mark was a major achievement. Now, with the help and motivation of a good softball buddy, I have started hitting the gym twice a day. Every morning and evening, I am doing 30-45 minutes of cardio and a workout that takes between 45-60 minutes. You can say "well that isn’t enough time" but when you are working out alone and trying to keep your heart rate up..THAT IS A LOOOOONG TIME!
I have started a new diet specific to my taste in food (i can not stand veggies lol), cell tech, and Xtreme Tren. I have heard a lot of good things about the gains in strength from XTren so I figured Id give it a try. We’ll see where it goes. My over-all goal is to gain lean muscle, not nec get HUGE. I have been huge..it wasn’t that great in my opinion. I want to be healthy. If you aren’t healthy, then being able to bench 500 lbs dont mean shit.
As of now, my Weight is between 295 and 298 every morning and my body fat is between 30.5 and 31.5. Needless to say, that is still too damn high. But..its good motivation to help "Get Your Mind Right".
