Today at the gym I got the best compliment I have ever received. It made me feel so happy about myself, I can’t even describe it. This compliment had nothing to do with the way I look, or my body.

There is a trainer at my gym named Noel. He is in his 50’s and a very goofy guy. He has a really strong accent(African..not sure which country) so sometimes it is hard to understand him, but he is always in the gym making jokes and dancing to the music. He jokes around with me all the time telling me to go home, that I’m not allowed to use the equipment, that I am too weak. All in good fun because he sees me working out there all the time so he just likes to give me shit.

Today Noel called me name. I figured he was going to tell me to go home or something. Instead he told me that I have the best attitude of anyone he has ever met. He said my attitude is so great and so contagious. I wanted to cry of happiness right then and there. It made me feel amazing. Especially coming from someone who never gives me compliments(not in a bad way, he just likes to push my buttons and give me shit haha). I was completely humbled and my workout got even better after that.

No compliment about my body could EVER top something like that!

Speaking of my work out. Today was another leg day and it was AWESOME. Supersets with plyos baby! 4 sets each.

Full squats w/ jumping lunges
Leg press w/ side to side bench jumps
Leg Extensions w/ lateral bench jumps(low to high)

Seated calf raises
Standing barbell calf raises(stood on plates)

I finished up with 45 minutes on the arc trainer. I am seriously feeling FAB-U-LOUS.
