Watch this space...

Without going into too much detail, let's just say 2007 wasn't a stellar year on the training front. Work, health, family, and laziness all played a part in my inability to train.

The main issue was motivation, though. Because if you really want it, you find a way to get it done.

I really want it now.

Stating with goal setting, then with the actual doing of getting to the gym and training. I've become what I mock and dread, a resolutionist.

By the end of this year, though, I'll be stronger than ever.
