note to self: CONCENTRATE
well i learnt a lesson today.. concentrate when lifting. sounds basic enough but i guess i zone out sometimes when i shouldnt. i went to squat 80kg today without really thinking about what i was doing….. and my god! it felt like i was going to snap my back in half. i have always watched those nasty gym accidents and have somewhat developed a paranoia about hurting myself so i guess this acted as a wake up call.
after i got over it i ended up squatting 90kg…. i never thought i could do that. so yay!
still haven’t been able to get my body fat done but hopefully in the near future ill know but im reaching the 70kg mark with my weightloss. this is a point i dont like being at, on one hand im happy i have come this far, on the other it is a point i can never seem to get past. no matter what i do or eat i can never seem to get to or maintain anything under 70kg.
advice from anyone about workouts, suppplements, anything that has helped them lose weight would be greatly appreciated.

Well hopefully you didnt hurt yourself. I listen to my MP3 while working out but I still remain fully concentrated on my lifts. I use my music more for background music and for some good listening in between sets. Do you listen to a mp3 player? I find it helps block out everyone else less distractions!

I have caught myself zoning out on occasion as well. As long as you didn’t hurt yourself that is all that really matters. That aside, congrats on hitting anew best. Keep training hard.
