The Weights Are Back Again

December 7th, 2009 No comments

Re-exposureofFFvernieuwdWhoo hoo! I just came back from my first weight training after several months of looking for a new weightlifting room. After I stopped at Fit For Free in Eindhoven, because of lack in good material and positive atmosphere, I really wanted to go back to my roots with weightlifting.

Weightlifting has never been about high repetitions and creating stamina or conditioning. Weightlifting is about training your muscles and creating strength and power. This has to be done with heavy weights and not with high repetitions and mediocre weights.

After looking at all kind of possibilities in the region of Eindhoven, there was only one option left. Back to Fitzijn in Waalre! And oh I’m glad I did! A real working  spirit over there with some hardcore training materials and 70 kilo dumbbells. Great stuff! Fun to be back again.

In the coming 4 weeks I will do some easy training to get back into the groove and training with weights. This way my muscles and tendons can get used to the stress again. Lets see where my 33 year old body can take me.
