I feel "strong" today NSV

bradthemedic · June 2012

Yesterday I did some heavy lifts. It's the first time in a LONG time I have been in a gym doing heavy. I've focused in the last 2 months on diet and cardio, with my big calories coming from calisthenics (I'm always talking about GSP Rushfit as you know).

Anyway today I really felt good. My chest is nice and sore. But something weird happened. I looked at myself in the mirror this morning and didn't see as much "flab" like I am used to in my chest region. I felt empowered.

Then I was walking home and looked at my reflection in a store front and noticed I don't look so bulgy in my front and side region. Obviously this isn't the result of ONE workout but just the nice DOMs I felt combined with general success made me feel on top of the world today.

I literally haven't felt this good since I was 16.
