Because...it cannot always run as planned.
Because...at the end of the day it is what you will do with what is given to you.
The Point?
I was up training and going strong and now I'm ill again with imposed bed rest. I do not get discouraged. I refuse to let my spirits down. Instead I remind myself about all of the good in my life. Family, Friends and Co-workers who are supportive; most of which provide love, understanding and empowerment.I remind myself that this too shall pass because part of loosing weight is being able to improve my health. Instead I am grateful. I am grateful for every opportunity I am granted and look forward to feeling much better soon.
Because...life provides me with all I need when I need it.
Shop Talk - Workouts
In line with keeping others focused and reminding myself of the importance of empowerment. I share a past work-out. I accepted the burpee challenge this month and while I have been good with the other workouts I fell behind on the challenge calendar. I did not want to fall into the old guilt pattern or spend days stressing over make-up sessions. Instead I figured a great way to do it: circuit style!Prep: I figured out how many I had to do of each and then broke it out by sets. Then I added some cardio drills including exercises I have a hard time with like jumping jacks and jump rope. I also planned on doing the modified version of the burpee. Then I just did it!
I questioned my madness 10 minutes in, hated life 30 minutes in but was energized an hour in. By the time I was done I felt proud, invincible and motivated.
Soon I will train again. Today I focus on cleansing my body and resting for future play hard moments.
