A WATERFALL STARTED WITH ONLY ONE DROP OF WATER

Today whether I like it or not has been a day of wandering thoughts searching the corners of my past and present and looking to the future. Oddly enough, its was a kettlebell training session that began this thought process.
Simple exercises quickly amplify the areas one is physically weak. We can lie/tell/convince ourselves all we wish but they are there. Kettlebells will automatically find your weaknesses and improve them. Just keep the proper form. Find the weakness in your eating regiment and commit to the change. Eat better, add supplementation, schedule and stick to workout schedule letting none of the normal "excuses" become reasons. Yet much of change hinges on the mental commitment, which can/does support all the rest. As in the title " a beautiful waterfall begins with just one drop! So does our lives. So let the waters flow and as I was told once; take as much time to plan your work as you work your plan and be smart enough to make changes yet stubborn enough to keep moving forward. Find the balance and you'll be surprised how satisfied at your journey you will become.
Today is the second official workout that Jon Alford has "prescribed" for me! I admit; it didnt appear as hard as it looked. Boy was I humbled thrilled and exhausted at the end. Learned alot and took longer than I normally would learning the proper form and then applying it properly with a 16kg bell.
1) TY GUP 4/2; 20 lb db
2) Deadlift 4/8
3) BP 4/4 Hard at first
4)Fig 8 to Hold 4/8
5) Crush Curl 4/8
6) Russian Twist 4/10
6) 1 Arm Swing 4/10 Rt 10 then Lt 10 switching in air non stop
I was worn out. Struggled greatly at the BP and TK G Up however I was extremely satisfied with myself and had a new found respect for what "seemed" to be a set of simple exercises.
