#realtalk time. The last few weeks have been less than perfect. I've come across 2 injuries in the last month - a pretty severe pinched nerve in my back, and most recently, I sprained my meniscus. Training hasn't been easy and sleep patterns and work have been all out of whack. I'm taking this week off of resistance training, just to focus on the important stuff. So, today is day 1 of 6, just doing cardio. There are loads of people on instagram who rave on about being all about positive vibes and support and the likes, but in reality this isn't a reflection of what they stand for at all. @jenniebrunton, @chantiepanties and I were all made to feel like shit for a while at our current gym, and the only reason any of it passed is because the three of us said we'd just overcome it on our own. There are always going to be people out there, tearing you down, whilst trying to disguise it behind a faux facade for social media. I say fuck them. Do your own thing, have your victories, celebrate them as you please, and keep doing you. Big thanks to the team at @supplementwarfare and @supplementwarfarenorwood for their ongoing support to keep my head up in the game. I honestly wouldn't have pushed this hard without you. #gym #gains #mentalhealth #wellbeing #fitness #fitstagram #peace #strong #strength #instagood #f4f #adelaide #australia #healthworks #liftingdeadweight #lifting #deadlift #squats #traps #biceps #muscles
