Every day I bump into someone who I know has trained for most of their life. I hear a lot of inspiring stories on how well they are doing. Unfortunately I hear a lot of stories about how certain things have happened and they have had to have a break in their training.
Then follows that period when they promise themselves they have to get back into things, and that time is always usually a week away. This week can lead to weeks or even months.
This is the number one reason for me why individuals get out of shape, or never get into the kind of shape they once dreamt about getting into.
If you don’t train, then changes will never happen to your body.
This is why the actual “doing” is always more important that copying some complicated training routine from a magazine.
Rather than make life difficult for yourself, “just do it” as the old saying goes.
If you tried asking people you haven’t seen yourself for a while how their training was going, I would put money on it you would get similar answers to me. People in general are the same wherever you go and its never easy to be in shape all the time, very few people manage this.
Those people you ask who are having a break are maybe the ones you need to ask yourself if they would like to join YOU in your efforts to get in shape?!!!
You cant beat training with someone else to get more out of yourself!
The only downside training with someone else is that sometimes they let you down, and this can be most unhelpful in your efforts to get your sessions in!
So as long as you can hook up with someone who is trustworthy and motivated, and a similar fitness level as yourself, its an absolutely fabulous idea for you to get your own “training buddy” and you help your friend out too!
Anything that gets you actually doing instead of talking about it will be massively beneficial for you!!!
