Just got a New Years workout in at the gym, did a run this morning with the dog. The thing is I didn’t HAVE to do it, I could have rested, could have convinced myself that I’m up early tomorrow anyway, got a big day, let’s rest up.
The problem with that is if I hadn’t put those workouts in, I would have had LESS energy, less of a sense of wellbeing, less circulation around my body, less sense of purpose and less momentum going into tomorrow, I made the right decision because I feel fantastic now and I know I’m likely to sleep better later because of it.
Never see your workouts as something you “have to do”, they should be seen as your energy boost, your wellbeing boost, your mental health boost, your get and go catalyst and the best way to get stiffness and pain out of your body.
Never has a small time investment given so much back in return, don’t kid yourself, you need to get moving early this year and never stop if you want to feel anywhere near your best.
