21 positive days. We are all unique.

When it comes to ourselves, there is no comparison. We are all unique. Don’t downplay that uniqueness by comparing yourself to others.

I started with a deadlift and I’ll finish with a deadlift. And a PB at that.

This is my 4×4 at 45.5kg (a touch over 100lb). Doesn’t seem all that impressive, does it? But I am roughly about the same length as that teeny 8kg bar and weigh a massive 40-ish kg (89lb).

Numbers are pretty cool, but they need to come with perspective.

I am very proud of myself today. I workout at home so I am very careful with my weights and progress deliberately slowly. I go up, I go down, but I’m always inching ever slightly forwards. It’s taken me about a year and a half to get here, and the future is looking pretty awesome.
