What To Do When You Lose Your “Exercise Groove”

It happened to me this week! It happens to everyone! Sometimes you have a week where the things you planned just didn’t happen for you—-for whatever reason! Believe it or not, even personal trainers get off track when it comes to exercising!

It’s Friday and I have only had 1 workout this week! Usually I have had at least 3 workouts by this time of the week. So, what now? It’s very simple. I’m going to go workout today and get back in my “exercise groove!” My body is ready for a hard, intense workout. I’m going to do circuit weight training and interval cardio. That’s all it will take to get going again.

What does it take for you to get back into “your exercise groove?” How long has it been since you really exercised? The good news is that it doesn’t matter if you have been off track for one week like me or for 3 months! Just get started again! Today! Don’t put it off! Your body is ready for it! Your health depends on it!

Ready, set, go!

    That is true. It’s easy to give up and it’s hard to start over sometimes. There always some very “important” reasons that prevent us from exercising.

    You go Mark exercising tonight!

    I thought about the ways to reach consistency with exercising…

    Amen!! I find that if I just do it, and not think about it that helps. My head can talk me in and out of exercise so easy. You can do it!
