Week 1112/4/2020 My dad has always told me that in life, there is going to be adversity but it is how you respond to that adversity that truly defines who you are. I have always lived by that anytime I face adversity. This week that has really helped me to say the least. Earlier this week, on Monday, I was doing one of my favorite muscle building exercises, the dead lift. I was doing heavier weight than I usually do. As I was doing the lift my back started to burn really bad so I stopped working out and I found out that I had pulled a muscle in my back from overuse. This is a common injury but it does take time to heal. I went to the doctor on Wednesday for it and they said that I should take a break from working out for a couple of weeks. I asked them if I could still play golf and they said if you feel pain while playing then to stop but if not then it shouldn't be a problem. I went out to the golf course yesterday to test it out and it hurt a little bit but not enough to stop me so the injury will not effect anything but the workouts. Obviously this injury was not part of my plan but stuff happens in life and you have to respond to it. Working out definitely helped me hit the ball farther but there are other things that are big factors in gaining distance as well. I went to the golf course today and I have never hit the ball so far in my life. My swing felt a lot faster and when I made contact with the ball it felt like it was going forever. The ball was not only carrying farther but when it landed, it rolled out farther which is very beneficial in distance. Next week I will be uploading a chart of how far I was hitting each club at the beginning of this experience and how far I am now hitting it. You guys are going to be shocked at how much I have gained. Here is a picture taken this week:
