M4:D55 (D355) And the winner is…

What's on my mind today?

My DOMs has set in and I can tell this is going to be one hell of a set of DOMs.  I worked so hard in my workout yesterday that I am feeling it in every inch of my body.  It is times like this that I think about the effort I am putting in.

This is the reason I work hard.  I am preparing for a competition that will take place in almost a year.  I have plenty of time to be a winner in that competition.  It is the intensity with which I do my workouts that is going to make me a winner.  Each time I enter the gym these days I am ready to attack the weights.  I know now that my body is full recovered when I hit the gym.  I never believed that two days a week working out would be sufficient, but it is.  Recovery is the key and that's what is working the best right now.  The rest I am getting is causing me to grow and that's what I want.

My son has also been doing H.I.T. and he is turning into a real winner as well.  Prior to starting H.I.T. he had a difficult time doing deadlifts at 135 lbs. for 5 repetitions.  Yesterday he managed to do 150 lbs. x 15 repetitions.  He is starting to understand the importance of giving it everything.  We had a big talk about why you would bother going to the gym early in the morning if you aren't going to work hard.  He is using alot of effort now.  I am extremely proud of his efforts.

Today I did my interval cardio session.  The typical setup again–heart rate up to 145 BPM for 2 minutes and then recover back to 105 BPM.  Do this as many times as I can in 30 minutes.  I think it is starting to change my body.
