jan 23

well the Christmas bulk up is slowly coming off, opps. I had to start doing cardio already, at 22 weeks out instead of the planned 16, I guess that is the price I will pay for eggnog. Bodybuilding is quite boring compared to the strength sports, pick light boring weights up and put them down, not much to write about. As I start to lean out I may post some pics. Having a coach has certainly helped, already my physique is starting to balance out. It has meant doing a whole lot of exercises I would rather not do, which is why I had those imbalances to start with. So big thanks to  Dawn Alison ( Fit Body BC) for all her support

Jan 3 2013

Strength, determination, perseverance, commitment,  I thought I knew these words was a master of these words. Twenty plus years of competing in strength sports, training, dieting, recovery, doing whatever it takes to be the best I could be. Then I start this bodybuilding adventure and I realize that I have much to improve. Thinking back it was a process like it is now, but as I became more proficient  at what I was doing it had become more of a habit than a discipline. Now I am learning all over again much to my surprise. I fell  off the BB wagon through December, diet went for shit, reps fell on the big three so I could lift heavier. As a result three weeks later I have gained ten lbs and injured my low back. This is one of the reasons I have decided to do a BB meet, three years ago when I went back to school to become a RMT I quickly learned that I had become complacent with my view of myself. I thought I was constantly reading and upgrading both at work and in training myself and others, I was sure school would be no problem. Boy was I wrong. I now find myself here again, although like before nothing is new but man is it different. So now once again baby steps, and with some help of the people I have supporting me I will have to find a new level of strength, determination, perseverance, and commitment.
