Holy Balls, I made it! Double digits baby! Ten weeks of pain free training. I actually feel better today than I did ten weeks ago. I had a slight setback in the middle of the cycle, but I persevered. I did my best to not add anything new. My diet has been awesome. I made sure to get to sleep on time. I also made sure not to stretch too much. My motto used to be "Nothing exceeds like excess." That kept me really strong, but feeling like a bag of smashed sphincters all the time. Now it's all about balance. For all of you feeling the abuse of years of sports, lifting, etc, there's hope. I never imagined I'd feel this good again in my life. Waking up pain free is really a blessing.
