Report: Day 91 [6-3-2012]

Nothing symbolic about today, save and except for the fact that this is Day 1 after my original 3 month/90 day plan. Do I feel better? Yes. Do I look better? I think slightly, yes. Am I more confident? Probably yes.

The more important question is - How do I take it to the next level?

Of course, maybe before answering that question, I best answer another question first - am I physically ready to take it to the next level? I don't know the answer for that. I'll have to ask Sifu Raj. I've been carrying out 'Phase 1' of the plan diligently for the past 90 days. Through 'Phase 1' I have gotten used to working with free weights and I have gotten way more familiar with my own body, more than I've ever had in my entire life. Granted I did not go to the gym as often as I wanted to. This is a goddamned disappointment. However, I've averaged twice a week, which some would argue, is better than nothing.

That being said, does 'being ready for the next level' mean that I'm physically stronger and better conditioned for working out? Or does it mean that I have to actually get to the gym more often? I'll have to ask Raj soon...
