Happy Fitness Friday!
So I’m in a funny place with my workout routine, I feel motivated but at the same time am feeling discouraged – which both contradict each other. Motivate is defined as a stimulate interest in or enthusiasm for doing something and discouraged is defined as having lost confidence or enthusiasm; disheartened. Complete opposites!
I was thrown off my normal routine these past two weeks, so I understand that is probably where a lot of the discouraged feeling is coming from. And I’m motivated knowing that half marathon training is just starting to pick up, and I’ve actually been running! I’ve been making progress with sticking with my workout routine and growing stronger, but admittedly I haven’t seen some of the progress I’d like to see with my weight.
I am also day three into no sweets for 30-days. It’s going to be tough with a bridal shower and wedding thrown into the mix, but practicing self-control for 30-days is a personal thing I want to challenge myself with, and something I know I can do. I just need a few extra jumpstarts to accompany the exercise.
How do you push yourself to new limits? What is standing in the way of your goals?
