Azul’s BodyBlog

One of the best explanations I’d ever read given about this lifestyle is that it’s Like having a second Job. A considerable part of my day is spent preparing for it, followed by an equal measure of my effort preparing for the next. Always was the most efficient way to explain (defend) this to a baffled inquirer. And then i’d laff maniacally and leave ‘em more confused.

Wrote the above to miked512’s and felt other’s could benefit from such sage thoughts!

Also added a "PEACE B*TCHES!" but that’s cuz we’re cool like that.

Be Well,

-A!

Just read  1jz300’s July 1st blog about NO Xplode and some of the hi-lites were:

i am saying this once and i will never go against this so you can qoute me on this. I will NEVER workout without this stuff again!!! i love it!!!! i workout nonstop for 1 and a half hours and feels great. The next day i am in sooo much pain. I love this stuff and would recommend it to EVERYONE. whether its running, walking, mountain climbing, working out, playing a sport……TAKE IT!!!!

So I commented (because that’s what I do, how I show respect to peepz sharing their thoughts *hint hint*):

Warning: All those reasons you love it is the EXACT reason you’ll hate in 30-45 days depending on you scoop intake.

lol.    I love how I almost run out of exercises to do.

How the harder I work, the harder IT works, TOO!

No seriously, I’m actually on a forced discontinuing of taking it. Kept saying I’d do as the bottle recommends and take time off but kept switching to NaNo Vapor and then Black Powder using GNC’s very forgiving return policy (shh…) but now that I’ve finished my last bottle and I’m finally giving my body a break for the first time in 5 months and lemme tell you. It sucks King Kong Ballz.

First day off, I was 1/3rd way thru a back/chest superset day and grabbed an overpriced Redline from Gold’s Cooler for a much needed kick

SideNote: Seriously @ $4.25?!?! I don’t know if I should drink it or put into my gas tank. Mos def need to check out Big Lots.

Next day, drank a Kronick before a leg day and again had a ho-hum day.

Dayz later I feel so blah, it’s almost depressing. But I know it’s worth it and the pumpz and ampedness I’ll get when I return to imbibe that overly sweet…slightly tarty and nasty nectar that can give u the ‘bubblegutz’ (or is it bubblebuttz) if u don’t do as they say and TAKE ON AN EMPTY STOMACH… will be so worth it in a week or two (just in time for Gold dayz - haha). Which is probably why I’m on your page lookin’ for extra motivation to get me thru.

LOL.

Excellent videos/blogs.    G’luck and enjoy it while it last.     May the pump be with you!

Yea, that’s what I wrote cuz it’s all true and everyone else should benefit from this insight into a super-popular supp.

Peace and May Galactic Pumps stick your arms out at the sides.

-A!

the remaining 10% that your body influences is a still a significant factor.

So last Saturday, I hit chest and back hard. I’m talking about 8-10 range in reps with some drop sets if I had a doubt that there was an untapped molecule of ATP lingering in single fiber…

It was one of those days where I had 2 hrs till Gold’s closed and was supersetting calves to keep the energy up and the resting period down…

It was one of those days where I had two days off before due to work running over each night thus forcing me to ‘relinquish’ that day’s workout….

It was one of those days  where I’d inadvertently finished my bottle of NANO Vapor like 3 hours earlier before my first set because I had to run back into work and help out with a pc problem - nevermind it’s my day off and I was in the middle of shopping for bigger workout pants at TJMAXX.

*inhale*

(Have to remember to mentally breathe…)

So yeah, it was one of those days where you know you’re pumped and everybody inside (and outside) the gym already knew the answer as soon as they asked you, "Hey, how you doing?"

"I’m pumped, baby."

Yeah one of those days.

Suffice to say, as I said in the beginning, I worked my chest and back thoroughly.

You know, when you’re enter your car and wonder to put ur gloves back on for more grip, so spent are your forearms that you’re worried you might not have enough strength to steer home. Like I said thoroughly.

Fast forward to Sunday afternoon when i’d normally be packing up for that day’s workout, and what’s your boy doing? I’m still drooling on the couch.

!

Yea… I skipped it. My body believed (and correctly) that I wasn’t ready to go Tropic Thunder on hams and abz that day.

So skip to next day, a hard day at work, a stressful Monday and I’m feeling that withdrawal from delaying a workout by more then 48 hours…um… yeah, I’m still spent.

Fawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwk!

This is the kind of challenge few speak about. Having the discipline (and intelligence) to walk away (or in my case, stay away) from the gym when you’re not whole and ready to give the sincere effort to make it worth the trip.

Which i suppose is the only thing worse then not having a workout - having a lousy workout.  This wasn’t a case of laziness, or general ill at ease with the idea of working out.

Like most of you reading this already knows, committment is not a problem at this point.

Stomach virus? Just means I’m working on an empty tank (whenever I, you know, stop heaving)

Flu? Not possible with as much vits/supps I peeing out.

Pain? *snort*

Low energy/long day of work? Shake a bottle of NO-etc.

Not feeling inspired? Click on Bodyspace homepage (duh.)

But a general "The mind is willing but the body if falling" feeling has only one course of action: walkaway.
