Just another way to kick eachothers' asses

Oh, i really hope you enjoy the music! Let me know.
Dude, you have a lot of money priorities- please tell me CO is last on the list! Im serious though, don't feel like you have to come out here I know it is expensive and I know you need to be paying for school and your car and all that.

So today....

I was having trouble getting motivated to work out today so I texted one of my guy friends and convinced him to go to the gym with me. I thought it would help because I figured “he’s a guy, he’ll push me and can spot me! yay, finally!”
Well once i got to the gym and was warming up i was really feeling in the zone and so ready to beast out my workout. Let’s just say it was an epic fail. I ended up being there for 2 1/2 wasted hours.
My friend is the most ADD lifter ever! He was all over the place and I just felt like I didn’t get a good workout at all. We did back and bi’s but it was just so all over the place. i’m not even gonna post what we did because it felt like we did everything and I don’t even remember the weights i did.
Then he wanted to box so he was showing me fighting skills (since he used to do a shit ton of boxing and does muay thai. Which was okay, but i just wasn’t feeling it today and my hip was really hurting.) BUT he was telling me about footwork and stuff and I think boxing might have contributed to my hip issues... he was telling me about if you pivot wrong for one of the punches about how you can really fuck up your hip and i'm guessing I probably did that.
Finally he had to go and I jumped on the AMT to do 30 minutes with 20 minutes of it being HIIIT (5 warm up 20 HIIT 5 cooldown).
Foam rolled the heck out of my IT band… even though the pt told me it was SUPER tight (it’s pulling my leg off center by 30 degrees!) i don’t feel anything when i foam roll….
Anyway, so since I haven’t really done legs or anything for the past month because of my hip, i’ve lost SO MUCH MUSCLE in my legs and it is really depressing. It is super discouraging. I hate that I’ve gone back SO MUCH and getting that motivation to push through this injury and move forward again is so hard. Although I know I can get there, it took me so long and a lot of hard work before and over this summer and the thought of how long it’s gonna take (especially now that i’m so limited in what i’m allowed to do) is really dis-heartening :/
Ugh. I want this week to be over so I can start over next week and be on my split again (been all over the past couple weeks with hip and sick and lifting with friends) and I’m gonna push through this frustration… hopefully. I gotta figure out the food thing too... i've been having some major issues with that :/
