When you’re on your fitness journey and/or you’ve got goals to hit, events and travel, even when planned, can feel like it’s gonna derail you from your progression. I just wanna remind you that you can’t undo all your hard work so quickly. Think less in an “all or nothing” way and more in a lifestyle way. You’re going away for a few days. Awesome! Have a great time! Chill out, relax, have fun. You can be mindful of nutrition if you want to but don’t stress about it. Out of your routine it can be hard to be as on point as you’re used to, and that is fine. A few days, even a couple weeks or so won’t remove all the progress you’ve made. What really stops or undoes your progress is when you take an all or nothing approach, say ‘fook it’ and give up altogether. Listen, life is never perfect, you’re never going to get to a point where things don’t come up that would make it more difficult if not impossible to hit every workout as planned and hit your macros (or whatever you’re doing) perfectly. What makes progress continue and what makes results last is making fitness and good nutrition a lifestyle choice. It’s not something you give up when stuff gets tricky. It’s something you just do. When something comes up, you deal with it, you go to that event or go on your holiday, and then you pick up right where you left off. Simple as that. No stress. I will not be working out for the next couple days. And I’ll be lucky if I get two workouts in in total this week. Am I worried about it? No. It’s not going to undo any work I’ve put in. I’ll get back to my normal gym workouts and nutrition next week when I’m done going to weddings and seeing friends for Halloween! Do you worry about going “off plan”? Or have you got the lifestyle mindset down? Happy Monday Teds (at Norwich, Norfolk) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVdh4F9ICCT/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
