What I've learned from this whole NPC/prep experience:
I learned I'm mentally stronger than I thought I was - my work ethic and discipline can't ever be questioned. I learned what my mind/body loves, hates, needs, tolerates.
- Love that God gave me this opportunity, both the chaos and the rewards
- Love that I am one determined mothafu--
- Love that we can conquer anything as long as we take it one step at a time. Literally.
- Love that everything is good again after a good weight training session - it's the solution to my exhaustion and bad moods. Plus, I love what comes with it: strength, the muscles, the "cuts"
- Love how I look in leggings and sports bra - no shirt necessary.
- Hate cardio that lasts more than 20 mins and is steady state.
- Hate peak week.
- Need a support system; need my JVA.
- Need (clean) carbs several times a week for brain food. I don't look / crave for it often off prep mode, but I noticed my brain and body function A LOT different without even just a little carbs.
- Tolerate 6am workouts because at the end of an exhaustive work day, I get to go straight home or hang out if I want to.
