So I’ve had two great weekends in a row… visited my parents last weekend; seeing the family especially my dad is real good…  good meals we’re had for cheating… did workout at the YMCA.. took the dog for a two runs… very short but fun…

This past weekend was the best; seeing all of my friends from H-Burg, Va… getting so many compliments on how thin I look… last time many people saw me I was 189lbs… now 160lbs…  my friend Lauren asked if I "left the rest of my body back at home"… feels darn good… nearly everyone I saw had something to say… I also received a picture from graduation last year, which was further motivating… seeing how ugly & fat I looked… probably then I was close to 200lbs… had some good cheat meals and got my drinking done… now back to eating strict… and working out hard…

5 minutes Level 10

Back to the grind… took the weekend off to visit my parents, trained Shoulders on Saturday. Good little workout considering I was using a gym that I rarely train in. No one was there on a sunny Saturday morning, I still got a few stares. I am sure there are not too many people who workout there that are in great shape.

Well it’s Monday and back to the grind. Only time/resources for one workout today. Extra bit of cardio with it today though, going to hit up some legs and run. Throwing in a new move (or two with the routine). Nice & quiet here at the gym so I should get a great workout in. I’ll get my second leg workout in on Friday. Make sure I strecth tonight.

Tommorow I’ll hit up some chest and HIIT. Back / HIIT on Wednesday. Thursday = unsure.

Happy Birthday to My Pops. "If you’re not [b]PASSIONATE[/b] about it… it’s just another thing" - My Dad

This quote came from my dad during a college football game in 04. We were in the stands, and my dad was being loud as could be for a 2nd down play. I have no recollection about what I said to him, but must of been something along the lines of calm down it’s a second down play. To that he had the above response. You have to be passionate and dedicate yourself fully for you to accomplish it.

Here’s to you today Dad!
