At some point during your fitness journey you'll feel like skipping your strength practice session.
There could be many ins and outs. You may be pushed for time, you may be lazy, you may feel fatigued or burning from your last session no matter what the case is, you don't feel like getting your head down and going to the gym.
It's times like this when you get the opportunity to build your resolve, strength of mind, and "never say die" attitude.
In fact today is one of those times for me
My quads are still really sore from the high intensity tabata protocol I did yesterday on my rest day, plus I didn't get enough protein to help recover.
Also I must of ate something bad last night because I woke up vomiting at 4am this morning...
So now I have two options: 1.) skip my strength training session today or 2.) Do the session as planned, but adjust as needed.
What am I going to decide on?
I'm going to carry out my session as planned and find my feet as needed!
So How Can You Get On When You Don't Want It?
When I come in the weight room today, I might notice my warm up sets are feeling extra hard. It could be the weights aren't moving as easily as I wish for.
I'll most likely still do my first set at the recommended poundage, though I may have to pull back a bit on the next two sets whatever happens.
Consistency Is The Solution
The key is I'm going to get in there and do my strength training session just like I had planned. Why? Because I know it'll be better for me in the long run.
Even if I can't perform at maximum it's ok. I'm still getting a TON of other benefits just by exercising.
Besides, I'm building the not giving up the habit.
Besides - you'll certainly not going to make steady progress over and over again - you will have great days, not so great days, and downright crappy training days it's completely just a part of the game.
The secret is to complete what you established and bring in the rewards for being consistent. - 16089
