Let’s start the journey of getting fit and getting in a great shape.
We decide to get fit.
We join a gym.
We look for online programs.
We sign up for a class.
We ask others what the best thing to do is, we choose what we like and we do it.
What’s the best for you, for your current body condition and fitness level? Most of the time we don’t know or we just want to get fit no matter what it takes.
It’s all good.
So we start something awesome - take care of our body to be healthier, fit, look good, feel great, stay healthy.
It’s still good.
We push through.
Want it or not.
Like it or not, we do it anyway
We struggle but we still do it.
We have a mission.
We want results.
All good, right?
We keep going!
We start feeling some pain.
But we push -
We keep going - no pain, no gain, right?
We are on a mission.
This is the point at which a lot of us end up at because we started something we are not ready for, pushed through to get fast results...and failed - instead of it being all for good, we ended up with pain we didn't have before.
After some or no progress,
Already in pain,
We become frustrated, discouraged.
We start asking for advice on social media, online research,
What has helped others,
Hearing so many stories and advice from all over the place.
Then, we get overwhelmed…
And hurting - either the feet or lower back or neck.
It was all for good, right?
Have you ever tried to do something you didn’t know how? If you have - you know what it takes!
You know, that if you need to do you taxes - you say to yourself “Yes, I am sure I can do them, but how long will it take me to figure out stuff, not to make a mistake, to do it right, to do it fast and move on?”
Isn’t it better to go to a professional, give him/her the documents and they can do it for you in no time? The time you and I will spend to do it by ourselves is time that you and I can use for something we love to do.
And I am pretty sure most of you do this - fast, easy and done correctly, easy for you, great results in no time, no struggle, no research, no asking people for advice and looking for all the options in the world.
Think about all of the above when it gets down to your own body and why you wanted to workout in the first place.
What a journey!!!
