Eval tomorrow

I am happy to see that i am taking my personal training days seriously. Even on the days when my PT cancels; i will go to the gym alone. I still struggle with going to the gym alone on other days though. I think the problem is mainly that i feel like i have so much to do still, that i'd rather stay at home and do those things. But then i stay at home to do those things and then i don't do those things either. I procrastinate everything, instead of just focusing on one thing. I think if anything it shows that having accountability for me really works eg. i will go to the gym on the days my PT and i have our appointments. The reason that i still go on the days that he cancels is that he can check at the register if i went or not (since you check in with your key fob, which is in their database). So there is no way for me to talk myself out of it "oh yeah i totally went, the key fob just malfunctioned". It's just not something i want to get into, so it is easier to just go and be honest when i have days that i really can't go. Like i told him that i would go to the gym on Monday (which is today) and i ended up not going since i am out of my ADHD medication and i don't feel comfortable going without taking it.

    PT: Day 4

    Today i did leg day with my PT! He offered me a job as a joke cause he said i was so knowledgeable about sport stuff/gym culture. The work thing was probably a joke, but he did seem impressed with my knowledge? I told him i just got my info from youtube and blogs (which is true) lol. It ain't that deep, bruh.

  • 4x10 leg extension, 25kg

  • I need to start doing something else for my daily routine from Monday on cause i am constantly gaming again and i am neglecting other things i have to do.

    Tomorrow (alone)

    Tomorrow i am supposed to do upper body day with my PT. Unfortunately, that is not possible, because my PT has the day off that day. Sooo, i have to go on my own. He send me a message asking if "it will work out" and i told him that i don't know... because that is the truth. I did tell him that i would already be happy if i manage to stay an entire hour on my own, regardless of what i do so we made that the goal, but i already know what i am going to do i just didn't tell him lol. I want to do upper body at home today. And then tomorrow i want to do leg day at the gym. So 20 minutes warmup then leg press, ab/dductor, leg extension, and leg curl. I think i will try to go around 12.

    Prepping for tomorrow

    Tomorrow will be my first work-out with my personal trainer! This weekend i rediscovered an old calorie counting website and i made a post-it wall with goals i want to accomplish. I also applied for a job today! Fingers crossed. Today i ate 1574 calories and 123 grams of protein and i took 3 post-its off the wall.
