WHAT COMES LONG AFTER THE SUGAR HIT?

THIS GEM REALLY HITS HOME.  It came during a conversation with one of the RaceDay Ready Accountability crew.  It is so good...

... because it is so true, for us.

Nothing tastes as good as being lean feels.

That is gold.

Nothing tastes as good as being lean feels.

Write it on your bathroom mirror,
on your scale,
on your hand.

We are athletes,
born predators.

I was thinking about that doing a local climb.  

My scheduled group ride through Camp Pendleton was nixed because they are doing training exercises.  So, I turned around short, hit it hard coming back...

... and attacked the climbs.

PRs.

Yes, PRs in January. 

Granted, the main segment, I haven't climbed it a million times, there's room for improvement.  It's a solid 20 minute effort...

... aptly named Bahia Pain Cave.

I'm not lighter than the last time I PR'd.  But, I'm most definitely stronger with all the leg work I'm doing nearly every day:

• Sled
• Squat
• Nordic
• Box Jump
• Toe Raise
• Heel Raise

The original phrase was Nothing tastes as good as being skinny.  Skinny can be good...

... it can also imply weak.

Athletes, predators aren't weak.
The are lean.
Strong.

One more time...

... Nothing tastes as good as being lean feels.

Especially, when getting after it on a climb.
