Bear with me as I gather content to drop here. I’m excited as this is my first attempt at blogging and I’m starting some new chapters in my world that could lead to some great experiences.
One of my favorite reads. The Journey follows the mind of Frank “Wrath” McGrath of AnimalPak and his prep for a show. The writing is raw, the message hits home. Give it a read! The company, Universal Nutrition/Animal, is awesome. Real, raw and authentic.
But not in the way we saw in GoT. Sure we may think we’re going to die under the load some days, but the definition we’ll employ here, while still involving brandishing heaps of iron about, and still about death….is about self-improvement.
You may be asking, “Still about death…what the what?”. Well thank you for asking but you can calm down. This death is metaphorical at best. Death in this case is brought upon our old selves, our struggles, our demons through the war we wage in the weight room. Barbells and Dumbbells. These are our weapons and tools used to forge ourselves anew. Every time you load up that barbell or grab hold of a dumbbell, the war has begun and each rep you squeeze out is an enemy felled.
Then again, sometimes it’s just therapy, “paying rent” as my friend of mine and others put it. Not worrying about war, or gains, no PR…no sometimes we’re just here to do what we have to do, for the familiarity of the weights, of the sweat drenching us, of controlled breathing and focused aggression. Yeah…those are the things that can take your day from shitty to satiated.
Well hello there! Chances are if you found this page a couple truths may apply to you: you know me or you’re like me! I intend to use this medium to express my thoughts and experiences regarding:
- Fitness and Training (multiple disciplines welcome)
- Nutrition (as I learn or read interesting material I will share. I am no expert!)
- Un-Nutrition (WHY IS BAD FOOD SOOO GOOD!?)
- My Life and Journey (my training, my lady Meaghan and our dog, Kaia)
- General Randomness
I hope you’ll tag along and contribute. Community and Camaraderie are things I love to see and encourage. I’m not here to, nor do I condone trashing this or that; him or her. I do however condone healthy, informative discussion.
Let’s train, share, grow and improve. If your favorite feelings include iron in the palm of your hand, a burning pump in your muscles and the satisfaction of hot pizza hitting your tongue… you are among family, Iron Price family. Welcome to Iron Price Athletics Crew.
