Sooooo…
I’m definitely feeling the effects of not hitting this iron for almost three months, but I’ll tell you what my body seems to be reacting so much faster than it previously has. When you add up everything: 3 months out of the gym, going home on leave, and over the HOLIDAYS AT THAT, eating as much fried chicken as I could handle; I should look horrible and my muscle memory should be in a state of amnesia… but I don’t and I’m not. I gained about 7 lbs from all of that… that’s all!!! The small definition I did have is mostly gone but not completely, and my size is still pretty much the same. I am truly blessed, I really have to stay on it and take advantage of the gift I have.
Sidenote: So there’s a guy in the gym who I started to see there regularly not too long before I backslid. His body was much like mine, pretty good size, could use a little more muscle density and maturity, and just enough fat so that you wouldn’t call him/me built or muscular. Well, apparently he pressed through the holidays and he looks pretty damn great. Arms to envy I tell ya! I was so pissed at myself when I saw him, but that give me hope for two reasons: 1) He and I have the same body type (I assume) and it only took him about 4 months to carve out some impressive guns and overall physique…so that means that in 4 months I should be hella hot and 2) I have a better starting base than he did back than and better than I had the last time.
Oh, well… off to the house of steel… SO MOTIVATED
