M3:D40 Powerful Reasons Why

What's on my mind today?
Today my entire commentary is devoted to my Powerful Reasons Why (PRW). Debbie: Can We Talk? came up with the idea for all of us to share our PRWs and so that's what I'm going to do today. After reading some of the other lists, mine is not that exciting.

So why am I a Shredder? What is it that motivates me daily?

I want to win a bodybuilding competition in my age division.
I want to reshape my body.
I want to be healthier overall.
I want to lower my chances of heart attack, diabetes and stroke–all things that run in my family.
I want to prove every naysayer wrong–all the people who told me after my back surgery that I would never be able to lift again.
I want my family to be proud of me
I want to feel good about myself.
I want to be in the best shape of my life.
I want to be able to look at myself in the mirror and smile.
I want muscles.
I want to be around for many years to come.
I want to be strong.
I want people to take notice when I take my shirt off.
I want to be appealing to those that matter.

That's my list–good or bad–I'm sticking with it!

Today I had a nice cardio session. It was too hot to run outdoors, so I hit the gym for a good session on the elipptical. 20 minutes of steady state cardio on the elipptical was my workout.
