Hey Modesto, although I’m not yet thinking of hanging (well I am, but don’t have the time or resources yet) I love your advice. Although I’ve accepted I’ll be doing this for years, what you’ve said here makes it sound a lot easier. To me PE has sometimes almost become a 24-7 obsession when I’m at my most low (especially when I too have seen my gains drop back down after I thought I’d cemented them) and so I became worked up or anxious and would go at it more only to get fed up because that didn’t work and almost stop altogether. Now I have a good routine set up, I think, but my only problem is making sure I actually get up in the mornings! ;)
You see, I’m on vacation from uni, so I don’t have to get up for anything, besides PE or my martial arts, but they’re of an evening… oh yeah and eating, but I can just take food back to bed! I’m not really that lazy though, I’ve just had too many late nights recently, and for no good reason other than I go to bed when I’m tired, and thats just got me stuck in a rut of waking up late! Anyway, I’m driveling again so I’ll just say good advice again, Modesto! Thanks! :D
