Back to the Grind
Well, I came back from Chicago last night. Our flight got delayed about 3 hours, and by the time we got home it was close to 1:30 AM as opposed to the original planned 9:30 PM, so yea that did a number on us who were flying back (and who had to pick us up) especially since we had school the next day. Needless to say, we didn't do so well in attendance today =D Whatever, it's all good. It is essential for the Muslim to adapt to his/her circumstances - to accomplish your goals no matter what curveballs you are faced with. Anyone interested in the hadith supporting this statement, let me know. It's quite interesting actually, props to Hafiz Amin of Darul Qassim.
My weight going to Chicago was around 231.5 - 232.0, This morning it was 234.6, so I am actually not too upset, considering that I threw all discipline of working out and eating right out the window for a full 8 days. But then again, it will take about a month to bring it down to a solid 230 pounds because this is resting metabolic rate we need to increase (ie. it isn't water weight, and to change my RMR won't happen overnight). It will also take that long because we have a stockpile of calorie rich foods from Chicago that will take a couple of weeks to deplete before we resort back to our military-discipline (and oh so palatable) fat & sugar free diet. But insha Allah since I will be here another 10 weeks minimum before Chicago, I am planning to be around 225 (insha Allah lower) by the time I go back again.
As far as weights are concerned, I maxed out at 245 on the bench, compliments to Marin for the spot. Tomorrow insha Allah at 4 AM bright and early I'll resume the weight lifting once more. I have a goal in mind with respect to how much I want to be benching by the end of the quarter, but I'd rather not say it in case I don't reach it. I would like to say however that even though the most I was ever able to bench was 225 back in college, I am happy but not content with 245. I do not want any props because props are not due here. A guy my size should be benching minimum 300 for any type of respect. I would like to give props to Adnan for weighing around 165 and benching 205, which is pretty baller.
Lastly I would like to thank everybody back home for the great time in Chi town; 1 week is definitly not enough especially coming out of the most hellish quarter of medical school, but Alhamdulillah it was a lot of fun while it lasted. It was a pleasure hanging out with you all, driving from place to place, eating everyone's food, and spending the night shamelessly.
I do want to say though that I did notice a lot of people gaining a lot of weight. Weight gain will occur as you get older by virtue of not being as active as you used to be when you were younger (less time to go outside and play basketball, etc). Do not set yourself up for metabolic syndromes (such as hypertension (high blood pressure), hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol), congesive heart failure (when the heart stops working), diabetes mellitus (sweet urine (hehe thats literally what it means)), or a stroke or MI (myocardial infarction = heart attack)). If you guys don't actively do calorie burning things, then before you know it you will be in a whirlpool of problems.
Also I noticed a lot of people are weak. Just because you are not obese doesn't mean you don't need to build strenght. You may sincerely not give a damn about lifting any weights, but Wallahi wallahi wallahi i am 100% sure your life will suffer in some way shape or form if you don't actively maintain a minimum muscle strength. TRUST ME... lift weights for 2 months (nothing too heavy or discouraging)and you will testify that there is a need for it. We will talk about this later because I am taking way too long to write this post and I need to get back to the books. By the way, I know i misspelled strength a hundred times, but I'm too lazy to run the spell checker. Oh, and yes, this above paragraph was for girls just as much, if not more, as it is for guys.
So please keep us in everyones duas. Make sure you keep in touch, comment, drop me an IM or text once in a while. And I will continue insha Allah updating as long as there are people willing to read.
