dazc's journal. bicep reattatched, now comes recovery. WITH ADDES UDOS!! UPDATE PIC pg92

I thought I should pop by and say hi! I like your pretty photos on p.56! Seriously, cool tattoo, and beautiful Shoulders like boulders.

How did you change your mindset? As in, what made yo go from being v.self-critical to more positive? It's a hard thing to do by yourself... Something I'm hoping I'll nail myself in the future...

hey flick! thanks for the kind words! still lots more work to really storm the u90's next year though!
 
not sure how the mindset change happened, im still critical, but just started to see it as a way to push myself, rather than a reason not to do things if you see what i mean?  And if i dont believe in myself, then how can i expect people to get behind me and support me?
 
ive also found that having a more positive outlook is producing the results and making me even more positive! !

I think you're right - totally.

I just wondered what it was that helped you to actually change your mindset around?
 
For me, I find it hard to picture how I would look if I looked any good... And I can't, for the life of me imagine it. I've no idea how my leggies would look at all...
 
So are you going to take as long an off-season as you can?

why do you need to imagine how you would look?  make it happen and then you will be able to see it for real!  i think your selling yourself very short though to imply that you dont look good! your doing the exact same thing i did for years, rather than looking and thinking 'if i can improve this, i will look even better'  your seeing bits and seem to be thinking 'they dont look good, and therefore neither do i'
 
I think things that also helped change my mindset was having people believed i was good enough to compete, ie keith (rightyho) prepping me, and the support on here.  Meeting and being with a great GF has also had a big impact as well, the support i get from her is superb. 

yeah, plan is to do the second to last qualifier. which, would give me the option of trying a second time to qulaify should things not go to plan and i come in smooth/holding water like i did this year.
 
I would love to do the MT show, but realistically i would be missin out on an extra 2 months of improvements, so unless things go very well, i cant se me making that show.

still very ill today, even after 13 hours sleep.  only managed a couple of hours at work, before i gave the lads orders for the day and came home.

struggling to eat anything, so far today ive had 50g whey in milk, and a cheese and onion pasty.  cant really face any food at all, have tried a few times.  :-(

im also off cycle at the moment, having stopped nearly 4 weeks ago now. 

no anabolic support, and bugger all food has seen me lose 5 lbs in the last couple of days.  thats a months worth of gains. 

bugger.

reckon it will be at least next week before im training and eating properly again.  could really have done without this setback

:-(

Sounds pretty much like the flu I had a couple of weeks ago mate.  If it helps my weight went straight back on after a week of training again.

STOP SOURCE REQUESTS NOW FFS!

maybe, though if its a bloody awfull photo id rather not be! lol


well, still no better today, in fact added to my list of symptoms is now earache, and massive shortness of breat.  i climbed up a set of ladders today, and it took me nearly 5 minutes to get my breath back enough to talk :-(    only managed an hour at work, the rest of the day has been spent blowing my nose, coughing, or trying not to pass out from coughing.  something i have failed at twice already, blacking out from coughing and the blood being stopped to your brain isnt fun at all.

cheers daz, could it be that im starting to feel a bit better?  just got up, and i do feel a little brighter.

gym seems like a distant memory though, i havent had a week off in years, and this one wont even of been of benefit!  weight loss so far is 6.5lbs :-(   not suprising though given calories have probably totalled 1500 a day, with about 80g of protein.  so much hard work undone already.  as if the challenge for next year wasnt hard enough!

Think hard mate about what you are eatting to get you back on track.
Even if you pick up some mass gainer , so you have a fast easy way of getting cals into you as i know when you are off your foods its hard to get food down.

It like going shopping after a good meal ,you have not got the head on to buy good food .
You just want to go home and sleep or put your feet up and whatch TV.
