My Safety Net

My great aunt died last night. :-( I was super sad. It was pretty sudden. I wasn't sure how the workout would go today. I didn't feel like even moving out of bed this morning. But, I finally had the sense to tell Brian that.

I hate 'taking it easy', so I don't tell him when I'm not really feeling up to hitting it so hard. (I know, not too bright on my end.) I always feel like if I back down it could have been a chance to do much better than I expected. But, it doesn't usually work out like that. So, I finally just told him. He gave me a hug. Made me laugh. We took it easy on bench. Then he told me to always remember two things, 1) I'm not gonna make gains every day. 2) I'm not gonna be able to come in an kill it every day.

So, it wasn't a terrible day after all. Going to the gym, talking to Brian, working out.....it reminds me of the song that's out by Ryan Starr called Breathe. Take a listen, when you have time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WamzHFj_SBI ... The only problem is, I'm sure Brian would say I fall down a little more often than 'sometimes'. Glad I have him and the weights to help get me up again. Besides, today was T-Bar Row day. That can't possibly be a bad day!!!! <3
