"Practice is all about pushing ourselves just beyond what we currently do." - Geoff Colvin
I've never had a longer stretch of continuous weight lifting than this year. The first few months were about settling into a routine, building a mental picture of successfully completed workouts. More recently, it's about detaching my mind from the exercise, as if I'm watching a machine in action. Separating fatigue from failure has helped me to push until the muscle's entirely spent, without slipping into the kind of bad form that comes with self-induced pressure or panic.
