GOALS
Alright so this is probably going to sound cheesy and cliché and like a sob story but its the truth so here we go.
I just finished my sr year of college but have 2 more years as a background. Im a collegiate thrower at the D3 level for one of the top track and field schools in the nation. My workout goals for this summer are 2 fold: for myself and for the team, and to bring a little jealousy to an ex...
So this past outdoor season was pretty rough, went between 3 coaches and just underperformed until the last meet of the year, missed out on going to nationals by 2 spots. AGAIN for the second year in a row, luckily I red shirted so I have next year as my final year of eligibility. My lifting numbers have increased slightly over the past couple years but im buckling down hardcore now and getting beyond anal about lifting and achieving things. Im not out to have "fun" for the next year, its all one bigger picture goal. Next year I want to make it to nationals so my goals this summer are
Get much stronger:
Increase numbers from
Bench: 335-375
Squat: 425-465
Deadlift: 585-645
Clean: 285-315
Snatch: 225-255
Those are the main goals. My bodyweight is sitting at 230 but I would certainly like to be a solid 240. How that will happen I don't know but ill be busting my as$ to get there. Also I will be practicing my events 3 times a week and really breaking myself down, my current coach (a former national champion) who has dedicated 1-on-1 time with me said if I can push through our 2 hour lifts and 3 hour practices, then nothing will stop me from being an all American for my senior year, and I want nothing more than that if not a national championship. Im dedicated and nothing will stop me.
As far as the second part of my goals... well when my track season was going rough I was down and pretty sad. My gf at the time, of 2.5 years said that it was changing me and I wasn't pleasant to be around, always crabby, etc. she wouldn't understand my competitive nature because she never played a sport and it showed she really didn't care about my competitive nature... Well after a meet I head back home to find her getting slammed on my bed by some random guy, who was actually in pretty good shape (no homo?). and was decently build (muscular cmon guys). and so long story short, she was kicked out, tried to get me back etc, and I said no. her reason was it had nothing to do with feelings he was just really "
hot" and it was all physically attractive.. Finally found a new gf who I love but now its my goal to make sure this doesn't happen again. It still bothers me but I feel I can be a better looking, more physically attractive individual. It is the best motivation I have right now to do a little extra cardio and core work after a long day.
Aside from that I have goals to travel around my home state a bit (Wisconsin) and venture to some surrounding areas. I want to spend more time with my family and my new girlfriends family (since that's something I didn't do with my other one) I just want to become a whole new man. Im 22 years old and have never drank in my life so I want to be a little crazy at time yet controlled. I just wanna enjoy life
