How far i have come.

If I think back about almost 6 months ago I just started Olympic Weightlifting. Ever since then with the help of my coaches i have been making leaps and bounds in the sport! I am very excited and anxious to see where this will take me.
Although i do have bad days its what you do after those bad days that make a difference. I am thankful for all of the opportunity's i have been given.

Two a day training.

Well today i started my two a day training. Its not like its body building but its more for purpose.
For Olympic lifting you have to have strong lats, core, shoulders, and back. Those are the other main factors besides the obvious leg strength needed. So my coach wrote a workout for me to strengthen those areas i need to be stronger at. Feels good to be in the gym twice a day.

Occupy La Police scared?

So apparently the police in La were supposed to remove everyone from the park at 12:01am last night. Well today the Occupy Protesters are still there. Although i don't really care if they stay there or not because they are not doing anything but taking up space in my opinion. I would like the police to actually do SOMETHING instead of letting people do whatever they want "for the most part".

It reminds me of how the London riots started. People "protesting" and then a large majority of them made it violent. And the police not wanting to look bad did nothing. The end result.. millions of dollars in damages and thankfully no one hurt. Just waiting for this to play out. What will the police do in the end?

Black Friday experience.

Although i saved a bundle it cost me alot of sleep... but saved me money... i wonder what is the trade of? Besides the obvious of course. I keep on yawning almost uncontrollably and my body welcomes a warm comfy bed.

Animals When it rains!

I took some pictures *excuse the quality* lol.  And they were of a hawk or falcon.. and a squirrel using its tail as a umbrella! Haha it cracked me up hope you can see the pictures!

UC Davis police Brutality

This is a intense video showing students of UC Davis getting pepper sprayed. Make you wonder what else is going on that isn't getting as much attention as it should. What do you think? Should there be more press on the "Occupy movement?" Or should this get swept under the rug as well as the treatment of these protesters. Everyone has a right to be heard what do you think?

Halo anniversary!

This game is the reason why i started playing video games. Brings back great memories. I recommend this game for the campaign experience and the old school maps. Everything looks smooth and clean!

Be confident in what you do!

Just as the title says be confident in what you do! If it's a job or working out to going out on your first date. Hold your self up as if you already won/ are the best at what you do. Of course there is a limiting standard experience. But once you have that then stop doubting yourself or second guessing more then usual.

You were hired for a reason. Or the girl is dating you for a reason. Because YOU are good at what YOU do. So be confident and ALWAYS keep learning or staying ahead of the game. This will even solidify your confidence not only in your self but in other people also.

For weightlifters its almost a MUST to have a certain "swagger" about you. You don't walk up to the platform doubting your self scared that you can't make the next lift. Your looking down, demeaning the weight, making it do what YOU want to do. I even go as far as visualizing  me already completing the lift. Standing victorious as everyone else is cheering and congratulating me on how easy it was or how cool it looked.

If your confident enough and have the right tools and experience. You will perform to the best of you ability.

Getting used to the Mac Book and Apple Products...

Some simple yet more complex things i have learned about these products. The iPad is very easy to use and like mini laptop just really smooth and touch screen! Love the games and everything else it has to offer. You tube, twitter, Facebook, almost seem to use it more then my real laptop at times.

The iCloud has its good and bad points. It sucks because you have to re download everything you had before your able to use the new software. But it is great because from now on your able to download anything you had on your I pod touch/iphone or visa versa when your at home. 

Being a windows user all my life and Android user also. I find it about a 4/10 difficulty getting used to> Just the Mac i would say is about a 9/10 getting used to all of its different controls and keyboard options. Extremely different from Windows OS. Still pretty interesting though i got to admit. It's fun learning about new things that are extremely addictive and entertaining. 

My Olympic Weightlifting Competition video!

As you can see by my facial expressions i was so happy that i made the lifts i did. I have corrected a lot of technical problems i had in my last competition. So that was a huge part of my success, without the coaching i have received so far i would not have made it even close to any of these lifts. I also have been working and training hard to achieve these goals. Enjoy the video!

Competition Pics/ video soon!

Just had a competition today and will upload all of the videos and pics sometimes tomorrow afternoon! Thank you to everyone visiting my blog. Its a work in progress and new to the whole thing. Seem to be doing ok for now. Thanks for all of the views and support! Any advice or anything let me know it always helps!

A whole lotta noting lol

Well... i was just testing out my front facing camera.. messing around. And decided to post this up. I said anyway like 10 times... lol. I will make sure that doesn't happen again haha.
