If I had a quarter for every training client that said to me,
-
“Is there something wrong with me?--That I don’t LOVE working out?”
-
...I could go be occupied in an arcade for at least 97 hours.
-
And you know what I assure them when they DO ask me that?
YES. YES. YES!
It IS okay!
-
Are there some folks who LOVE it?
Yes.
Are there some that wake up and just can’t WAIT to hop on the bike-
or go on a morning run?
YES.
Is there something ‘wrong’ with you
if that’s NOT you?
NO!
-
I hear so many of my colleagues in the fitness industry assure their clients’
“Trust me, schedule it- and you’ll learn to CRAVE it”
-
Does an accountant love numbers?
Does a financial advisor love geeking out on 20 year retirement plans?
Does a baker love making cakes & cookies?
DOES A FITNESS PROFESSIONAL LOVE WORKING OUT in hopes that you will too? (maybe not? but probably yes…)
***this is a general statement of assumption that you are in a field that *you* find or at ONE point FOUND slightly interesting to prove a point***
-
I’m NOT saying you MAY not learn to love movement or exercise-
What I am saying- is…
It’s okay if it’s NOT your favorite thing in the world. -
To this group of folks, I say- “find something that MOVES you that is tolerable- not something you LOATHE or else you’ll NEVER do it-
but something that you’re like “meh- this is aight, I think I can do this often”
-
Have you ever felt this way? ...about ANYTHING?
