This is why we dooo it.

I had a breakthrough today during a workout, however small. I managed to hold a wall planch just a little bit longer than usual. That small little bit part of productivity makes me feel completely fantastic.  And that's what it takes for me to feel happy in my life

That feeling is like a drug, and I am addicted to it. Any improvement, any challenge a little closer to getting accomplished. That's why I think I've felt so bad lately is somewhere down the line I got scared and stopped pushing myself. Maybe my challenges have just gotten bigger and harder. All I know is when I don't have that feeling, I feel awful. 

I've heard preachers say that we praise God by doing whatever it is he wants us to do. I've read verses that anything we do as praising God is in Honor of God. I think that this is what God wants me to do, to challenge myself, and if I can worship and praise my God through this, then how great is that? It's a huge challenge. It's letting go of all my fear and my inhibitions. I don't know why it's scary to me when I know the payoff is so great, but it still worries me. One day at a time.

todays workout

1 minute of static holds

• Back Tucked Lever
  
• Tucked Planche
• Handstands
• L sits on the rings
  

Some Planche training

3x5 Handstand pushups

3x5 Back Lever swings

and then it kind of petered out after that.

I think I need to cut the fat out of my workouts, this took a little to long and I didn't get to all the hardcore stuff I wanted to.
