Sorry, Babe

My hubby as I have told you before is a workout-aholic. He is the annoying guy who goes to the gym and makes everything look easy. He is the pain in the butt that always gets picked first to be on the team, he picks up a ball... is pretty good, picks up a batt, is pretty good, he is just that guy. The guy who is pretty good, naturally at a lot of things. Especially athletic things.

He works in construction and his job is sometimes HARD work. He gets physical, and dirty a lot of the days out of the week. Yes, he is my hot sexy man and I am proud of him. He gets up at 430 am three days out of the week to go to the gym before work, so that I can go in the evenings and he can spend time with our little ones. Really, if I had to get up at 43o in the morning to fit my exercise in I feel fairly confident I would say FORGET IT!

He eats food to nourish and rebuild his body. He doesn't eat mindlessly, and almost always will choose the healthiest option. Good thing he picked to marry me, because he keeps me in check when I want to go a little crazy and have 5 pieces of birthday cake. I remember thinking when we first started dating that there would be no way he would want to marry me because he is in such good shape and so health consious, and I... am a LOT more of a work in progress. Well I tricked him into marrying me and so here we are. His healthiness has rubbed off on me a bit and my all time greatness has rubbed off on him. haha just kidding bout that.

However, Hubbers is a bit of a cheater too, I think. He takes a supplement drink shake thing before he works out. I am not sure what it is, but he gets it from the nutrition store and all I know about it is that it is supposed to give him energy to work out harder. When he gets home he drinks protein, and something else that is supposed to make his muscles recover faster, and feeds his muscles so they get stronger. I was telling him about my posts this week, and I tippy toed to the fact that I think he is a bit of a cheater with the whole pre-workout boost, because so many of the rest of us go to the gym and push ourselves to OUR limits without a booster.

Well, of course he had somethin to say bout my insinuation. It went something like this "Do you lift heavy weights like I do, do you work a 11 hour day after you work out in physical work, do you lift to get bigger muscles?"

"No I do not. I lift weights hoping I might get skinny." haha. I guess we all have different purposes when we exercise. Depending on what your purpose is, you will have to decide for yourself what your body needs to keep up. So there you have it, a different look at the supplemental side of things. And now that I think about it, maybe, maybe if I had to get up at 430 am to workout, I would invest in some preworkout boost as well. MAYBE!
