Lifting is weirdly like putting in golf. Takes total focus. If you are confident going into the approach/last set you have a great chance of sinking it or squeezing off the extra last rep or two. If you let doubt creep in and think you’re weak or reconsider the line and just give it a go… you will come up short every effing time.
I find working out by myself, jammin tunes, not peeking at mirror during the lift, I feel more motivated, less embarrassed and can push beyond limit.
Yes, I am on the creatine again mainly because I plateaued and lost a little strength - not sure if there’s a correlation - could be caloric deficit too… but whatever. 1 scoop after workout, not two. Aga said to lay off, but I am goin with Anth on this one.
Meeting with Aga on Friday for weigh in and postmortem on all my meals, workouts, and sleep patterns the last month. I have tracked everything. Would like to show up to this meeting a cool 20 down. Also, when I say 20, I mean I lost 35 and maintained off since Covid. So 55 total Friday, then another 35 by Christmas.
Again, just creating good beavior habits is the real work. Lifting and treadmill is a one hour focus. Food is all day - every day, no breaks.
