Thank you for your kind words @TheNewMe2.0 , I appreciate that, and it helps me as well :)
I few years ago I did wrestling and I went to competitions, I never managed to win/take the 1st place, but the closest I have even been was a 2nd place for a christmas tournament.
For the national finals I got on the 8th place, that was pretty good for me :)
I gave up in the end because I was not focusing on school so much ,so I had to take a decision, wrestling or school, and I went the route of studying which in return got me a career in IT.
I went to the gym after I gave up on wrestling but I always had a month,two months or so where I didn't do anything so basically I kinda of cut down my own progress in the gym.
It's taugh indeed and being a disciplined individual isn't easy, it takes a lot of will power to respect your plans and to respect yourself.
Now I don't go to the gym anymore as I adopted a more classical , old-school approach of just doing push-ups, pull-uls, squats at home and I take advantage of some dumpbells and elastic bends.
Now I'm just focusing on staying lean, hence the reason why I don't go into the gym anymore.
Bu that's not the point., my point is that I understand how difficult it is to keep a tight schedule, especially when you're not in the mood, it's tough, but only discipline gets us there.
And it's fine if you skip a day or two, even a week, but the main point is that you started something good for yourself and it's good for your body,mind and spirit, it motivates you, you feel good after you finish a workout :D
I applaude your initiative of looking out a gym close to your areas where you plan to visit Puerto Rico, that's an amazing idea and an amazing step forward on your behalf
Good luck and stay strong brother, you got this ! 💪💪💪
