I have confession to make too, right after I made some nice gains, I've made a pause and that pause still lasts and it's almost three months :(

What's the point in doing it if your going to give up when you started getting the goods, it's the same mentality that keeps the obese overweight, toughen up and stick at it!

Guilt should never be a motivational factor.

If you enjoy not training, why train?

In this day and age, we are suppose to go around and feel guilty if we do not do this or that, especially when health and fitness is involved.

Fuck that!

I don't feel guilty at all, I just had to confess :D Actually I had to take a break, it became boring, but the biggest factor was the combination of over training and intense schedule at work. So I was in dire need for rest, and than soon after came holidays, and than flu... Now I'm planning to get into shape, but first I need to prepare for physical testing I will have, for job that I applied. So the primary objective for now is running, elliptical machine and circuit training.

Also even though I lost few kg's, I kept most of muscles I gained, I'll post a picture later

This, so very much.


So often i get to hear people be like "oh yeah i really should go to a gym/fitness, or work out etc" when i talk about what i do.
And i'll keep repeating, that they shouldnt.


Find a sport you enjoy, and then do it enough to gain the benefits off it. Dont do a sport you dislike.


The callus tears, tendon inflammations, muscle strains/craps/acidity, shot lower back, abstinence of alcohol, arguments about training 8houres+/week / cost of food&supps, rejecting going out to recover etc
You simply dont endure all that shit, at all. You simply dont put up with it, if you dont love the sport. And you wont nearly get the results
