Can't get motivated to work out today

[biteme]

It's leg day and I'm sitting here dreading it.

What's the deal man? Just one of those days or what?

 

[casavant]

Just make it your passion dude. Once it becomes part of your daily routine, it's easy. You actually feel like crap and fat if u DON'T workout.

He's been doing it quite awhile, man...

New personal record after 24 years of lifting (post #1)

I just posted this on the anabolic board, but I'm proud of the achievement so I'm posting it here too. I turned 38 a week and half ago. Tonight I decided to rep with 225 to failure because my shoulder is hurting and I didn't want to go heavy. The most I've ever done is 225x24, tonight i hit it for 27 reps. Stronger than ever at the age of 38. Don't quit training if that is your passion.

I really appreciate that. I never look forward to working legs. I've been squatting for the past 3 months and I go for 20 reps with 315 which is a bitch. I have to lie on the floor for a few minutes to recuperate between sets. My knees have also been aching and I'm not sure if it's the squats or playing basketball on Sundays.

No problem- it was a memorable post.


315 for 20? Ouch. High rep squats =

Psyched up now. Had a cup of strong coffee and ready to hit it.

Happy lifting, compadre.

Once a week, I'm always reminded why I don't like working legs. I don't think I have enough energy left to go out tonight.

But at least, I would hope, you have a sense of accomplishment now that you are done. Should feel better that you didn't just blow it off.

tell us how it goes

 

[WarriorPL]

Just think about how painful the next leg day will be if you don't go today...

Yes. I rarely ever blow it off. I like to use the line that Jack Lalayne uses. Everytime I complete a workout, I look in the mirror and say, "**** you've done it again."
