The challenges of this week have been tough, but it comes down again to your mentality if you will overcome them or not.
All sorts of studies on the body show you are either in the mode of getting better (stronger, faster, more flexible, better balance, etc) or you are regressing (getting weaker, losing balance, getting stiffer and pain creeping in your body etc).
The nature of this month’s programme is to keep you n the ‘positive get better’ camp and make big gains in every area.
Showing up at least three times a week will guarantee you are improving, because your body will naturally respond well to every time you visit the gym.
Staying away from exercising will put you firmly in the regress, fall behind camp, as your body loves to stay strong and without the necessary stimulus, will have no reason to fight to get stronger, faster, better balanced etc.
You won’t feel like doing every workout, especially just before, but once you do, after ten minutes your mind will remind yourself why you exercise regularly and why you challenge yourself in such a purposeful way.
It’s easier to stay in the groove, have momentum on your side, rather than to constantly stop start, which is always the most mentally testing and toughest way ever to keep fit.
