[Woody-5]

Still crushing some great numbers in here!

How's the summer heat treating you? Talked to one of our sales reps in AZ, and he said it's been hitting 110°
You must down a gallon of water per lift session!

Still cooking up those bomb post workout meals?

Great stuff my dude

[Woody-5]

Always impressed by the training intensity and volume in here, great stuff. Always puttin in that work! Regularity has been my nemesis the past few years. Whenever I get settled into a good groove, I'll have a little speed bump throw me into a loop and it takes months to get back at it again.

Doing ok! bit of a rough winter, but made it through. Did one climb in January, popped positive for Covid right after then had to sit home from work for a week to quarantine. Fukking stupid because I only had a fever for a few hours the first night. Work got busy as hell, so I didn't get out much for months after.

Finally starting to get regular climbs in now, but I haven't hit the weights more than 2-3 times this year. Nearly 10 months sober now, so i'm pretty stoked on that. Someday when sh!t slows down a little I'lll fire the journal back up, even if just to post some mountain pics.

I haven't logged since last December. Too much life going on hah

A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work. I have a dream and I am whiling to do everything possible to make it reality. I may get judged on what I want to do, I may get judge on what I do, but to me none of that maters I know I have one chance in life to make a dream reality and throughout life only the dedicated and determine will find success.
