Today went well. I couldn't make a full 5 reps on the seated overhead, so the weight will stay the same until I do. I don't imagine it will take me long. I kept the rest periods short and sweet today and that worked well. I'm thankful that I've made this a priority, thankful that I mustered up the courage to try this new program and the discipline to keep it going. I could've taken today off because it's the holiday, but I didn't. Instead of felling like shit because I didn't push myself, I feel good knowing that I got it done and can go about my day. And honestly, it really isn't that difficult to go downstairs and do it. It's hardly ever physical limitations that stop us. I would venture to guess that 9 times out of 10 it's a mental blockade that we placed in front of ourselves. I'm thankful that I've fostered a mindset that just won't allow those barriers to stay standing. Now off to clean the house and finish cooking! Happy Thanksgiving!
