Tuesday September 2nd... Main workout was a 5 mile run. It felt strong. Something clicked -
This stuff doesn't get easier - you get more bad-ass. You are able to push aside the discomfort, the pain, the 'negative' self talk, the frustrations, etc a little bit longer. You are able to POWER through your challenge a little bit further. You are able to take on that hill or climb that used to cause you to hesitate, but now you CHALLENGE it to take you down.
Again, it's not that it gets easier... because nothing about this stuff is EASY. It's about eliminating the fear and the obstacle and proving to yourself that you can do ANYTHING.
Below are some still shots of a Muscle Up... it's funny because most people CAN NOT do these. It took me nearly a year to get this down.
In the Gymnastic World - this is one of the most BASIC, entry level moves. In the Real World, it is damn hard. Being able to get yourself from a static hanging position UNDER an object, then transfer your weight to a locked out position OVER the object takes strength, agility, and speed.
