This is a declaration of Day One so I can see the One Day.
.
I wish to take a step back and give myself the best chance to live. I'm not going anywhere but I want to focus on my health. As much I love pushing weights I really want to make this body better to do so. The goal is to lose weight, the amount is not known but I just want to be healthier physically, and hopefully on this journey it can help me heal mentally. Like I said I want this to be a log of progress and something to always come back to and be held accountable.
It's going to be exciting to become better.

Dear Anthony,
I know at moments you find it easy to kick yourself and let darkness cloud your mind/vision. You diminish your worth because of your own perception and ignore anything positive because you've grown accustomed to do so. I'm here to tell you that it doesn't have to be this way.
Listen, take a second and breathe.
A month ago you competed at your first National Championships in weightlifting. You have previously qualified on 3 separate occasions but this time you trained smart and keep your ego in check and was able to stay healthy enough to lift. You went 6 for 6 on the day and a lot of doubt that was your in mind was put to rest. It has indeed become of your favorite memories as a weightlifter, that day you were in your element and enjoyed the moment the best way you could. I am so proud of you man. You belong in the light and you deserve to be happy. Work on finding yourself and letting your most natural self to be show to others. Keep doing the things you're doing that bring you joy and I know we'll be alright. We will talk again soon so I'll leave it at that for now. I am proud of you.
I love you Anthony.

First week of 32 didn't disappoint.
.
Somewhere in the range of 90% of all time lifts. Remember the goal is to stay as healthy and strong as possible so I can finally go to Nationals again. Gotta enjoy the process. Winter is coming!

Who would've thought a choreographed dance routine would take so much coordination, athleticism and focus
I legit went into the gym planned to hit a heavy lift but turned into jump rope and dance for like an hour. I'll try this again soon but next time I should prolly play the music while attempting.
Plus this was a fun way to get some cardio in, so big wins.

My legs are getting stronger but my pull sucks.
.
I'm telling on myself but I have been slacking on my pulls especially snatch pulls. I felt the power in my extension but my coordination is off and my positions are weak.
Yay, more things to work on!

Goro would f*ck me up
.
It turns out when you do your squatting as programmed you actually get stronger 🙃
@geoffrey_steinbacher go figure!

Guitar Hero was such a good series
.
I’m sure it introduced rock music to a lot of people who might never have come across it otherwise, and maybe even helped them find some of their favorite bands. A lot of my taste in music actually comes from the soundtracks of video games and the media I grew up consuming.
Anyways, squatting is becoming more enjoyable again but I still have a good way to go.

*Strength has entered the chat*
Two things:
1, I'm excited to be feeling stronger and my ceiling is beginning to rise.
2, The ceiling rising gives me anxiety 😅
I legit went 135>225>315>345 I haven't made jumps like that in years, I really don't recommend it but its neat that I did it. Okay bye.

Shoutout to my workout partner @arch_ant for showing up and getting after it with me! 💪🔥

Today’s partner WOD was no joke—heavy sandbags, sled pushes, SkiErg intervals, and core work. We battled through every rep and kept pushing until the clock hit zero.

That sandbag definitely humbled us... but grandma didn’t raise no bitch, so we gave it everything we had. 😤 That’s what growth looks like—embracing the challenge, staying consistent, and refusing to quit.

Think you’ve got what it takes? Come train with me at @rhousefitness in West Midtown, Atlanta. Whether you’re just starting your fitness journey or looking to level up, I’ll help you get stronger, move better, and push past your limits.

🎯 **Your first workout is FREE!** DM me to claim your spot and let’s get to work.

Thanks @kyaangelouink for taking the videos

This takes me back.
.
Summers at Jack Britt strength and conditioning for the upcoming football season. One group would be outside running while the other lifting. Classic rock, hip-hop and the occasional Rammstein.
Anyway, it was cool to rep 500lb again and feels like I have more in the tank.

Feeling like I'm about to make another push.
I've been maintaining a 50–60 lb weight loss for the past couple of months, and my strength is finally starting to stabilize. As July comes to a close, I think I'm ready to gear up for another phase—drop more weight while continuing to get stronger.
I've grown used to this body at this weight, and now I'm excited to see what it's capable of. Time to keep building.
