Pt of the day

“Finish each day and be done with it.
You have done what you could.
Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in;
forget them as soon as you can.
Tomorrow is a new day.
You shall begin it serenely
and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.”
“You've gotta dance like there's nobody watching,
Love like you'll never be hurt,
Sing like there's nobody listening,
And live like it's heaven on earth.”

i totally understand about the animals thing

me i didn't miss a beat full on for next yrs nationals
training currently with Brian and Donna Logue online
as well as i'm going back to doing what i did in 2010 when my legs were the biggest they ever were
and that is taking every tuesday off work
driving to Poco to train with IFBB Pro Carlos Rabiei
it's a killer gruelling 2 1/2 hr + leg workout lots of volume
and i always train harder when i'm around him lol
after which you are completely done and unable to do anything but lay down
last tues i tried to do a few things after and both my quads seized trying to walk lol

I Choose…

to live by choice, not by chance;
to make changes, not excuses;
to be motivated, not manipulated;
to be useful, not used;
to excel, not to compete.
I choose self-esteem, not self-pity.
I choose to listen to my inner voice,
Not the random opinion of others.

I choose to be ME .

“To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else
is the greatest accomplishment.”

Sounds like you're on the right track and I agree legs MUST be destroyed at every leg workout or it's a wasted workout. Like you my legs are always in need of hard work and with the quad injury I sustained a couple of years back to my right leg things are a slow go...oh well IMO it gives me greater purpose when I'm training legs when I have an obstacle to overcome.

Speaking of the nationals next year has the location and date been announced yet?

“No matter how much you plan,
it is tenacity, unyielding desire to succeed,
and the ability to cope with change
that will eventually prevail.”

“I don't measure a man's success by how high he climbs
but how high he bounces when he hits bottom.”
