So the footy season finished a couple of months ago and my team lost the grand final, which was devastating, but it was my first season of football (AFL for those of you not from australia) so I still have a long time left. I was one if not the fittest at the start of last season and want to get that way again. However I also want to get bigger and stronger while maintaining/improving my speed which is my main asset. So I got my gym membership and started going for the past 2 weeks, so i'm going to use this to keep myself accountable and to track my progress.
