Today, while I was doing my calf raises and between sets, one of the gals in the gym asked me a simple question: "Are you training for a competition?" Well, goodness me. My reply, "nope, training to live." In all honesty, I feel I have a llllloooonnnnnggggg way to go before I even think of competing, which isn't even a goal of mine. I don't have the food discipline needed for sucn an adventure. But, I was flattered none the less. I finished my workout with a smile instead of the squishy face I have when I'm trying to lift something heavy.

Thoughts: *felt a little twinge in the left shoulder while doing these.. too much weight? Too much shoulder work in one day? I'll keep an eye on it. Doesn't hurt now. Overall, I felt this was a good workout. Please with it!
