Au debut
I hope that the smell at the gym get better this week.
It’s been very unpleasant working out in that environment and I am not sure how long I can continue ignoring…
Regardless of that, the training will continue and let’s hope Eric’s focus is back this week.
Monday – Weight Training

There were a small crew of cleaning people in the gym removing the part of the wall that was still wet so that the mold won’t grow. The noise and the dust were enough to put me off but Eric’s attention was drawn towards the crew and what they were doing. Of course, the training was shit. Well, sortta. Let’s hope this won’t continue too long.
Tuesday – Weight Training

It’s been a couple of weeks for me to do back squats. Could have added more weights but Eric was firm to keep the weight as-is. Injury is always around the corner. Especially when you feel good and excited. Calm and Steady. It was a good session nonetheless.

I’m wasted this morning!! It was a rough session this morning. Especially when I don’t like pendulum squat🤣 Nah, it was good. My legs feel numb. This is gonna hurt tomorrow 😆
Friday – Weight Training

It was an alright session. For some reasons, I had some energy to do more (but didn’t lol). Pull-ups: I could have done 8 reps or more sets, or more weights. Bicep Curl, too, could have add more weights or more reps. Eric definitely saw but it’s Friday and knew I had a huge day ahead so kept it at that for today. Well next week!
Notes to me-self
It started off bit wanky but the week ended with a decent session so I’m happy.
Consistently hitting the gym and working out to get to the goal is all I’m doing, innit.
Many good days and some bad. That’s alright.
But I need to tell Eric when I can lift more weight so that I will continue growing.
He will let me know if it’s too fast, I’m sure.
The gym still stinks but the insurance adjuster is coming and the replacement and repair will start soon enough.
Can’t wait to see the new equipment!
