Strength

I am stronger.

Physically.

I have been noticing that lately. I can move more weight in the gym, sure, but its the small things that make me notice. More gas running in the mountains, the ability to bend and pick things up is not as taxing, even surfing, a certain amount of power not there before. Its not merely an energy thing. I am stronger. And I have worked out so consistently, that one cannot attribute this to better work outs.

I can tell this is related to healing. I read an account of dyspraxia that attributes loss in strength to continuous tension in the body. I do have considerably less muscular tension. Probably as a result of having a lot less epinephrine etc. Or maybe its a question of better neural signaling. Things aer starting to function more and more like one would expect them to function.

PTC in two days. No supplements tomorrow. Wow. With, lets say, an average of 30 pills a day for almost 5 years, we are talking about my ingestion of almost 5,500 pills being consumed. This does not take into account the drinks, shakes, cleanses, oils and other additions. So, a day off feels, well, outstanding. Happy pill vacation body.
