You know you are dedicated when…
Ok, so this blog is mostly for the women. Monday morning is always my superset day for legs and abs. This morning I woke up with cramps from my stomach down my thighs. My mind was screaming, hell no we are not going to the gym for leg day. However, somewhere deep inside me there was a little voice, it was kinds squeeky, but is was saying, just go and do your best. Somehow that small voice won out. As I warmed up with leg curls and extension I thought I must be crazy. I started to sweat from the pain. Luckily endorphines kicked in. Soon I was working out harder than ever. My squats increased in weight. I had a great workout. So glad I went. And to just make everything even better, someone at the gym asked me if I played a professional sport because I was always working out so hard. That was a goal of mine when I started getting back in shape, was for people to mistake me for a professional athlete. Thank you little voice.

Women are superior to us wimpy men. We’d be an extinct species if childbirth was up to men. After 1 time, we’d be heading the hills…..& no more kids!
Congrats on grinding it out. My profile & blog motto: JUST GETTING TO THE GYM IS A SUCCESSFUL WORKOUT.
