So, I went to the gym today for the first time with no sleeves. It felt pretty awkward because I’m pretty skittish about my size. But, I was reading arnold’s book and he said that he was ashamed of the size of his calves so he started to wear shorts that showed them off to motivate him to grow them into the calves that he’s famous for. So, i decided that’s what I needed to do. After about 30 min, I quit worrying about what people were thinking about and just focused on my shoulders, the muscle i was working today. I have to say that not wearing sleeves kept me motivated the whole time i was in the gym and i cant wait till tomorrow for an awesome bi and tri day. So for all those out there who are scared to wear sleeveless shirts to the gym….do it, show them guns off.

So I had a goal of getting my deadlift 1RM to 315 by the time I left Korea. Well I’ve got 71 days left and I met my goal today. Not only did I meet my goal but i repped 315, 3 times. I have to say that when you meet a short term goal in way of a long term goal it feels great. Thanks to everyone who has encouraged me to achieve my goals. Now to get my bench to 300…
