One of my friends and I recently discussed how we want to start lifting at the gym -- and I mean heavy lifting not just the little free weights we currently do -- but we are terrified to get into the heavy weights section and try out the barbell squats, deadlifts, bench presses and such. Everyone over there looks so experienced, so tough, and so serious but we still really want to do it! She just sent me this article from Nerd Fitness and I now have a new idol!!

This chick's story is so ridiculously similar to mine that I can't dismiss it. My new goals (after I crush the Spartan Race in December) will be inspired by this girl's transformation.

I will face my fears and I WILL LIFT HEAVY! :happy:
