M4:D4 (D304) Restless

August 25, 2008 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment


What's on my mind today?

Today was a curious day.  It was a rest day, but I was extremely restless.  I could not sit still.  I ended up going for a walk to burn off some energy, but it didn't work very well.

I watched the end of the Olympics today.  I'm honestly not a huge fan of the Olympics, but some of what went on today was interesting to me.  The US men's volleyball team put together a nice win for the gold.  It was exciting to watch.

I was reviewing my bulking diet and realized that if I'm going to pack on muscle I'm going to have to be prepared to gain some fat along the way. It is a tough mental decision to make because I've worked hard to burn the fat, but in the long run, the muscle will be most helpful with cutting down later.  I'm still going to do my best to keep the fat gain to a minimum, but I'm going to aim for the goal of packing on muscle.  The sacrifice is worth it.
