Last night at the gym was insane. I ran out of my usual Universal Animal Nitro Aminos. I usually take a pre workout dose 30 minutes before my workout. Last night was one intense workout without them.
Valuable Lesson: Never run out of supplements. It was no doubt the toughest workout I have ever had in 3 weeks. The point where all you wanted to do was put back the weights, walk back to the changing room and leave the gym.
Thankfully, doing something like that felt wrong. I looked around and sure there was some intensity from other Big Guys who already have earned their strength and size yet looking back at me was myself, I saw that the man in the mirror needed a chance to grow. So putting that emotions aside, no matter how many pauses I needed to take to complete my sets.. I will never quit on a scheduled weight training.
It continued till 9 plus at night.. through each completed set, I dug deeper and deeper in my soul and finally completed all 20 sets.
There had never been a time in my life where after my workout, I had to do some stretching and just lie down to let the blood flow back to the rest of my body. I couldn't raise my left shoulder to take off my t-shirt even. Each rep in those closing moments of the workout were straight up mind over body, brutalized to total failure.
Waking up today (still) with a shoulder support worn throughout the night as I slept, reminded me of the pain people like me go through to reach our goals. I do encourage you to try if you think that changing your life both physically and mentally is important.
Today is my Cardio day and my day off from work.
I look forward to writing in tomorrow.
I just need to recover today.
Thanks and do come back for more articles.
Cheers
