Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Oooof, another short and late journal. So I ended up taking a nap at around 9 p.m. but I woke up at 12, and because I haven't worked out yet I had to postpone a journal until after so that I can make sure I had my daily exercise. Today I smashed my record yet again, as I was able to do normal bicep curls at 50, I decided to do hammer curls at 60 today. Creatine and protein seriously work, because when I have been working out in the past without either, I would not see gains like this. Albeit some of it may be my latent muscle waking up as I have been able to curl 50s in the past, but I felt like a monster today as I listened to Dragon Ball Z music yet again while I pushed past my limits. It's nostalgic, because I kind of feel like Goku! I've been doing what I can to encourage the dudes that I work with to exercise during the pandemic, but I found that the best way is to set an example. I haven't taken a rest day in weeks, but I plan to so don't worry. I just want to have an immediate change in my physique for them to see that they can take advantage of this free time as well. Now I don't do any cardio right now, and I don't plan to for a while, so I am only getting bigger! I have made a huge change in my diet though, making sure that what I eat isn't fattening, but only high in protein. I can also say this much, I really enjoy doing this and it is improving my mood as well as my physical health. I hope that my progress is inspiring to whoever reads this, if anyone even reads this.

Anyways, eat well, drink lots of water, exercise, and have a good night!
