Ramblings
Well my left calf is still laid up but definitely on the mend. No BJJ tonight. On the upside, I did my push-ups this morning and they are finally getting easier! I am up to 3 sets of 20 and my final reps no longer feel like utter misery, the way my last few reps felt two weeks ago, when I was only performing 10 and 12 at a time. I can feel the strength building in my arms so when I push the last ones, there is actual, honest-to-goodness, muscle fibers firing off and doing the work. Does this make any sense? I am still working hard, but the work is more enjoyable because I have more efficient tools to complete the task. Adrenalin is lovely tool, but when you are building strength in weak areas, true ability to complete an action is refreshing after two weeks of relying on guts and stubbornness. Bonus, years ago I used to work out to Tamilee Webb's Buns of Steel. There, I said it, so what. (what? stop laughing). This morning I realized those exercises will come in hand
This woman is such a great entertainer. She made a statement lately that really struck me...that she's not trying to top anyone, not even herself. As a person that's always competing with herself, that REALLY struck me.
