It's getting real close to Christmas Eve, and I'll have to be real honest, where the heck did the Christmas spirit go? There's absolutely no snow, and the thought of Santa Clause is about as realistic as the Easter Bunny (I mean, as realistic as you can get when you talk about Santa and the Easter Bunny). Nevertheless, this day has been spent in the sign of Christmas, trying to get hold of a Christmas tree and decorating the apartment. The way we see it, if Christmas can't find its way on its own, it's up to us to make sure that it does. Oh, and last but not least, today I also recorded the first episode of Bringing Awesome Back Goes Radio for 2014. The episode will be released on 1st of January and feature non other than bodybuilder Lars Gunnar Östling. Tune in then!

# Workout Notes:
It feels damn good being back again! The new diet is going well and there's a lot more carbs than I'm used to. Therefore, the performance at the gym is also a lot better. I know I've promised you guys the full diet plan, and it'll come soon, so stay tuned! Until then, keep Bringing Awesome Back!
