Keri McKibbin Personal Training

If we don’t have a battle to fight every day, then we get frustrated because we haven’t had enough stress in our day.

Too much stress is not good, but we DO need some stress to challenge us, enough stress to make us better, and to keep us wanting to improve.

Stress, doubt, frustration, impatience, anxiety are all human emotions and if we leave them build up, then they can feel overwhelming and top us doing many things in our days that we NEED to do.

Workouts are commonly thought of as something to make us look better, but the reality is 100% of the time the workout makes us FEEL better too, and a big part of this is keeping stress and other negative emotions in check.

Your daily battles are essential, don’t shy away from them because they are essential and we need to deal with them head on. From those battles we do get better, we do feel better, and we only grow with confidence every day from winning them.

New programme week means new movements, new challenges, new moments whether you can even get through it.

This is just part of the process, and you must trust it and get through it no matter what.

You can be sure that after the October is over, you will be much stronger, more resilient to the movement challenges, you will become more flexible, better balanced and feel better in every area of your life full stop.

If you are’t challenging yourself, then you aren’t improving.

We all have weakness that we sometimes avoid because it is uncomfortable to face head on. 

These workouts are full of such movements, they will expose our preferred one sidedness preference, they will expose our lack of balance in some situations and they will correct any inconsistencies we have on one side because none of us have perfect balance.

Going to be a great month, and the one way you can guarantee that is to keep on showing up no matter what.
