For the first time in my life I have stopped...

For the first time in my life I have stopped playing soccer and started to focus on gaining some good weight at the gym. Its taken 9 months to put on about 8 pounds of muscle and Im finally seeing some results. But those minor results are still significant.

A few friends have been asking me about working out and diet lately, and the lesson that I have been reminded of with this new chapter of my life is Patience. The cliche “nothing worth having comes easy” is so appropriate here. People give up (on many things, not just diet/working out) because they dont see the results they want right away. Its a process and you have to find joy in the journey.

It doesn’t have to be all or nothing though either. I still eat pizza, greasy egg sandwiches, and drink beers on occasion. Everyone is different, and our goals are different, but like anything else it takes discipline and hard work. Im no expert on this stuff, but I know there’s no secret to getting the results you want.

My boys will crush me for this post, and deservedly so, cause Im usually the one who makes fun of everyone else for over doing the self promotion. But Im enjoying the process, the grind of going to the gym (instead of the soccer field everyday), and proud of the results. Hopefully Arnold will let me take a week off soon.
