It scares me..

So for you guys that have been following me during these past weeks, know that I've had some great progress with my Olympus goal. Sadly, that came to an end today. I've been sick for a while and today I returned to my workout as it is suppose to be (took a day off yesterday due to illness - I know, I act like a little bitch). I returned today in a decent conditioned and worked on my shoulders and my chest which was my 2 main muscles that I decided to focus on.

But since I am going to Irland the 31st of Oct and I wont be able to as active with my workouts then as I would have been home, I decided to compensate for that by working on my back as well. Now, I have done a new personal best during last weeks Friday and I felt pretty strong, so I decided to try it one more time - tho this time, I put on an extra 10 kilos. Now, for you guys that don't know or have been doing this king of exercises but on a much lighter level might think that 10 kilos aiint that much of a difference. But jumping from 170 til 180 was a huge risk for me.

And tho I am really stubborn and when I say I will do something I rarely back down..and then it happend, not only was it the most pathetic attempt on a lift that I might have done in my life, but it also did somehting to my lower back, which you guys know is the part where I have been injured during a long time due to my training methods..as I said, I am stubborn...and stupid! So, yeah, I had to step down and it actually hurts..alot, but I decided to keep practicing my back tho on a much lighter level (I know, I am a genius, right? It's hurts when I try to sit down on a chair, but let still lift over 100kilos while it hurts you).

So yeah..for now, it hurts and that effects me alot, since it took me close to 4 years to even feel close to ''good'' around my lower back and it took me 'bout 4 seconds to ruin it - I assume that you can understand me when I am telling you that I am scared that this might be it for a while. And I am also scared for what I am capable of doing (keep pushing myself this much and might be to damaged to ever succeed again) or what I can not do (lift that amount of kilos). It all comes down til how I feel after Irland, after getting a few days off reflecting over my situation and letting my body regain some strength, who knows, I might return as a hero and keep going strong..or I might fall due to what I could not accomplish.

Hahhahaha,tha was funny..me, quit? Hell to the NO! There is no way that I will let this small setback keep me from doing what I love, I just have to be strong..and in time. I will be able to accomplish wonders, it is true..I am scared..but that will not keep me from reaching what I want! Work hard guys, but do it smart, you will get there in time! Just remember to not let the fear of losing keep you from working hard. It is not suppose to be easy, you are suppose to be afraid and you are suppose to be hurt, but in the end it's worth it! Remember why you started!!

I have also started an Instagram account for all of you that wants to follow my travels and quests outside Olympus as well - davidtdk1 - Feel free to check it out and see what's going to happen in the future!
