Make the days count!!
One part of this sport that many overlook is how your own thinking should evolve. So many individuals have a close mind to what they think is the right way. What may work for them now, may not work down the road. The key is to keep an open mind to what others feel is the right or the wrong way. You never know what works for you until you try it for yourself. One of my friends posted a quote earlier today and it really caught my attention.
"Don't count the days, make the days count." -Natural Bodybuilder/ Powerlifter Eric Koenreich.
This really hit home for me during this prep and can cross over into every part of your life. Make sure to soak up the whole experience and continue to push yourself to improve on yesterday. So far I am passing the 15 week out mark for my first show and this prep has been a whole new learning experience for me. I really feel that things are progressing and right on track to bring an improved package to the stage.
Had a great one and here's how it went.....
*Warm-ups excluded
Front Squats- 1x12@225 / 2x6@315 / 2x8@225 (1 sec pauses at bottom)
Narrow Leg press- 4x8
Lunges- 4x10
Leg Extensions- 3x10 / 2x8

Time to own 2012!
This past year I feel that I have evolved in may areas in and out of the gym. I have placed an emphasis to think outside of the box, enjoy all aspects of my training and most importantly I am rolling into my contest prep healthy and hungry. I would also like to thank everyone for all their help and support this past year. It has been an amazing journey that just keeps getting better each and every day and this is one reason I love what I do so much. With this I wanted to post a few training highlights from my 2011 offseason as a base for self improvement next year.
Now that 2011 has come and gone, it is time to press forward into 2012 with one huge goal on my mind....to improve and have fun!
