Workouts

I have been fairly sore these past few weeks. I have been consistently going to the gym 3 times a week. I had talked with a personal trainer at the beginning and established the amount of times I would be going to the gym. Ideally the number of times per week should be 4 to 5, but I knew that was an unrealistic goal for myself. If I did 5 times a week I would burn out half way through on the 2nd week. Also I was not physically able to achieve that anyways, but even if I could I knew my limitations. 
  Currently I am enjoying just trying to build a solid foundation by learning from a master. I am developing a progression that I can maintain and that is not to extreme; a nice gentle turn of the wheel.  I do have a goal someday to increase the amount of times of going to the gym. I am starting this gym event within my new found limits, but I am slowly testing beyond the limits I have set for myself. Lots of frustrations and wanting to quit, or not wanting to show up to the next work out day. I am still trying to develop a better attitude about going, but it is getting better. Have not miss a workout day yet.
  Right now I need to build my strong foundation to build my future.  I have limits, but they do not hold me back. I push beyond my limits, but not so far to create more. To little of a push accomplishes nothing new, push to much and backwards I will fall. This journey of rebuilding my strength and balance back has been a huge up hill battle. I can't say that all this has been fun, but I can say I am thankful for it.
