NSV:: I am NOT who YOU say I am!

NSV:: went to see Andrew, the one I pay to beat me up a couple times a week.. Usually it's my back that gives me issues d/t a slipped disk right above my hips.. Anyhow, I did 6 min if snatches with 8kg kettlebell.. My rt hip cramped up an locked.. OUCH!! Apparently I made a horrible face.. Andrew was like "I haven't seen that face before." (usually when I am in pain I don't complain and I smile and keep moving) He knew I was in pain.. Those of you who live with chronic pain can relate to just working through it;) So I stretched it out for 4 min. I then started a 15 min circuit 8 step strides, 8 clean n press each arm with 8kg kettle bell, renegade push ups 12kg kettle bell, then each round 35sec plank.. My hip was thumping and cramping away.. 4min left he asked if I had another round in me. I said of course and asked him if he expected me to say no. He said I figured you'd keep going bc I know that four letter word quit is not in your vocabulary.. He's right it's not.. Maybe it used to be, but not anymore.. I an finding out who I really am and not the person that others have always told me that I am.. This is a great feeling!!! I an letting go of all the people who have hurt me, disappointed me, or gave up on me bc the extra weight I am carrying is allowing them to have power over me.. I am standing up and saying NO MORE! No longer will you control how I feel about myself or what I put in my body!


I will add that after that 15minute circuit I pushed a 125lb sled back and forth across the gym 5x
