So, when I began clinical rotations back at the end of August, I was barely able to devote any time to the gym, due to how demanding my first two rotations were (one rotation, I worked 28 days straight...my only days off were the Gorge, and they came right at the beginning of that rotation....10-15 hour days x 28 days in a row....then my 2nd rotation, I had weekends off, but when you're doing 16 hour days, all you want to do is sleep on weekends
). ...well, I got the hardest two out of the way! I'm on week 3 of consistent lifting and it feels great to just be driven to wake up and go to the gym...loving it right now. In 3 weeks, I've made some nice gains to get back on the routine, so my workouts are becoming longer, which is great. no where near where I was back four years ago during my senior year of college, but I'm getting there. When I graduate my grad program in August, I'll be able to hit it even harder. Can't wait to just have a job and then can work out around that, instead of having to work out around classroom or rotation work, studying outside of that, and then part-time jobs. I'm really excited. Can't wait
Fun fact: no on any pre-workout right now either...that was something I NEEDED back in senior year, especially getting back into lifting. I'm happy with my current mindset
