Back and Biceps + mind right

2-10-10
Well, although it was really hard to get up this morning, my mind has returned to being in the right place. I still have a little body burn out, but I have a much better attitude about it. One thing that kind of frustrates me about this whole process is that fact that it almost never leaves my mind. I talk about it too much, I think about it too much, I write about it too much, but hey, it is what it is. I don’t think you can do something this hard and not be consumed by it. Anyway, I’m going to try to not talk about it anymore, just be a soldier and get it done.
On that note, I’m hurting so bad, I can barely breathe this morning. Today was back and biceps, and Wow. Just getting strong enough to push myself harder (it’s the theme of the week). I knocked out 8 pull-ups without the chair this morning. Give me 7 more weeks of this, I might get 20 (and that’s just hard for me to believe).
I saw “it” this morning. I looked in the mirror and saw my abs changing. Not seeing any signs of a 6 pack, but things are flattening out and tightening up (there’s a few bumps in my upper ab area).
It’s hard for me to believe that I’m closing in on half way through and the end of the second circuit. The last two weeks have flown by. I can’t believe I only have 9 more workouts until another recovery week. And when I lay it all out, it just seems do-able now. I have Yoga, then the hated legs (but I make it through – last week didn’t suck nearly as bad as it usually does), then Kempo. The crazy chest, bi, tri on Monday isn’t too bad. Plyo is becoming enjoyable (yes, I said that). And back and biceps isn’t all that hard, it just makes me really sore. So as I said yesterday… I can do this.
