only Arnold would understand & my leg workout

I decided to go to the gym tonight & had a wonderfully awesome workout. I even threw up a little. Now, I know there are those that would never 'get' why working so hard it makes you a little sick would be a good thing.......well, I think maybe Arnold would understand......(if you remember what he said about it in the movie PUMPING IRON).......but those that get what that means for a plateau gets why this was a great workout.

I'm always trying to be stronger, push myself further, do better...I sweat sweat sweat & then on rare occassions, like tonight, when I'm hitting on all sets......I realize I just pushed thru a plateau & if the sacrifice means I throw up a little...even better......or....maybe not better.....but it's totally okay.......:D

today was leg day & my workout changed to 4 sets w/ 12-15 reps. It totally rocked! (thanks Trav for the advice, it did work out better........)
