Never thought I’d get a learning experience in / on my fitness journey. Here are a list of things I’ve learned
1. Stop comparing yourself. Sometimes the comparison will stop your progress because you’re waiting to be the image of someone else. Instead you can use their image and routine as an inspiration
2. Know your own strength and know your strength will fluctuate. I do keep a record of my lift in my workout program. I once would get frustrated when I was unable to lift heavier or the same as the previous week. Our bodies respond to sleep, nutrition, stress, illness, fatigue. What’s important is to give your best in each workout.
3. The scale can be a friend and an enemy. It shows you the weight change; joy when there is a decrease. It does not show how good you feel after a workout, how your mindset has changed with higher levels of positive behavior, energy increased, that proud glow you now have that so many are wondering what’s going on in your life. The scale doesn’t share the inches you’ve lost, remember so many people shed inches before weight. How about the change in your nutrition and let’s not forget the increase in water intake. And the toning, muscle gain you’ve eliminated fat, nope not on the scale.
4. Learning to be a greater you, and still enjoying those around you. Learning when to accept or reject certain people all for your good. This is growth.
5. I’ve learned and I also this will not apply to many, but a few minutes of daily meditation to begin my day has increased my commitment to my fitness journey.
6. Now it’s your time. How has your fitness journey educated you. Not on a journey and still debating?, hmm it’s May baby I can assist just complete your contact information and we can talk. We will only communicate via email.
