It’s amazing to me that I would stop working out, especially when after I do work out I feel great. I’ve gotten to the point of being a true gym buff before, going 5 days a week regardless of how I felt and coming home completely spent. There were times I would shake I worked out so hard. I remember living in Elizabeth NJ and working out at the YMCA. It was a real mans gym with all free weights. To get in cardio you had to jump rope or walk to the gym. I chose waling to the gym.
After my workout I was so tired and so spent that when I started my half mile trek back home it was like another workout in itself. But my God, when I put my clothes on and stood up at the train station ready to go into work I felt amazing. I was completely a different person and everybody around me knew it. I can feel myself more motivated now to do this than I have ever before. It’s strange though why, after so much progress would I have stopped before. The only thing I can think of was I didn’t want it enough. I want it now, I want it more than ever before, and my journey has begun. Lookout world JunkyFungus is on his way.
The same happened to me several times. I’ve had periods when I’ve been working out like crazy and feeling with it. But suddenly I stopped and started becoming lazy again – all of a sudden… Really strange, but good to know I’m not alone with this! I should kick myself in the butt again and go to the gym, too – it’s about time!!
Yea I remember Elizabeth NJ too,
good times…….
