Got started lifting weights last deployment, kept me from going crazy, hoping that this time around will be just as successful.
Why I Love It:
I enjoy becoming stronger, and I feel more alive after each successful lifting session.
How I Stay Motivated:
Knowing that I am able to pour all of my emotions into my lifting to help become strong has helped me stay motivated to keep lifting and not strangle anybody at work.
BB Accomplishments:
Last time I was deployed I gained 40 lbs. in a year. Increased my strength more then two-fold. Hoping I can do it again during this deployment.

This is after my workout....
Haven't been to the gym since the beginning of march, no motivation :-(
I have been doing push-ups and pull-ups out the wazoo....
Ok, so this morning I found out that I have damaged cartiledge under my knee cap in my left knee. The doctor doesn't want to do anything other then gradually strengthening the ligaments in my knee. Unfortunately this means that my return to the gym will be somewhat anti-climatic.....oh...
well i'm just trying to make it another 45 minutes at work.. not a huge fan of the night shift :( and as far as getting in trouble, i guess that would depend on how irritating my family finds me at that given moment.. i'm sure there are times they'd PAY you to take me off their hands
OH! so you're gonna be 'crazy lifting knee brace' guy, huh?? there's one of you at my gym.. never knew a man could make such loud noises! he cracks me up.. haha
me too =) hey... sorry to hear about your knee =( you're not gonna get like those guys who only lift upper body and have teeny tiny chicken legs, are you? haha
unfortunately, i'm the girl scout who ate all her cookies before she went door to door selling them, so her mom had to pay for them ;) distribution isn't my strong point
