The main problem I used to have with training is demotivation. I'd pick up a game or something and then get so into that I'd get lazy, or I'd get frustrated with slow progress I'd skip training.
It's a lot different now, sometimes I do still have that feeling where I'm just going through the motions and not really getting anywhere. But it's not often and it's not a lot, and I stick through it because if I don't I'll be letting other people down. I like it this way, because it's much more frustrating losing everything I worked for because I got lazy for a month.
Rant over, update time: I missed the last competition, and will be missing the next one (unfortunately) due to a Vietnam trip. Hopefully if I have leftover money from the Vietnam trip I might be able to afford going into the League round when I come back but we will have to see.
Training has been very easy-going the past month and a half. Was going roughly around twice a week due to exams and having a social life in the holidays. Getting back into it this week; uni starts up again next week so I expect my training to go back to normal too. New program, back to four times a week to accommodate for my new uni timetable.
62kg PB Snatch today, even after feeling pretty beat up from training the past two consecutive days. Missed 64kg behind but the height was definitely there. I probably would have got it after another attempt or two but I'll save it for later; I'm happy with the 2kg PB.
Train hard.
