The Big C-Word. Complacency. Do not be complacent in your life or in your workouts. Always strive to do more. I feel like I've been living in a state of complacency for the past few months and it's time for that to change. I've been accepting things as they are and not coming with the attitude that I could change the situation. Like today, before the workout I was already psyching myself out about the pull-ups and the push-ups, and I kept telling myself I'll be happy with 9 rounds (that was my PR on the workout Rx'd), but I wasn't. There was no sense of satisfaction with accomplishing that number. My problem tonight was that after I did my first couple of pull-ups in September, I became complacent with being able to do two or three at a time and I quit working on them. I quit working on my kip and on my deadhang. I accepted that I could do "Cindy" but couldn't do "Helen" because of the number of pull-ups. I had become complacent. The state of complacency is horrible, especially when you wake-up and realize what you have done. So from here on out I am promising myself that I will not be complacent. Like I said before, BEWARE OF THE C-WORD. COMPLACENCY IS A DANGEROUS STATE. ALWAYS WORK TO BE BETTER.
