Complacency and procrastination are
heavy during the holidays.
One could easily gain 7-10 pounds
and the research supports it.
Many people come to me just plain
zapped of energy or stuck on massive amounts of coffee or energy drinks just to
get through the day.
I will not spend today talking about
the metabolic disruption that can go on in the body, but I will tell you that
borrowing from the future (stimulant abuse) will set you up for a disaster down
the road.
I have a better idea. Let me nudge
you...
This holiday season make sure you
are on a fitness plan to help you regenerate your body. It goes something like
this:
- Start working out smarter and with a purpose.
- Cut back on things you don't need (we have too much of what we don't need); alcohol, sugar, caffeine, negative relationships, digital stimulation.
- Add things to your life that you need more of like: sleep, nutrition, exercise, positive relationships, emotional connections.
Do you have a willing mind but
incapable body?
You would be smart to hire a fitness
pro to help you get started! A fitness pro/trainer can teach you how to train
and will hold you accountable to applying your new skills. Being able to learn
and apply new skills is always worth the price.
Remember, you are the engine not the
caboose (your body is also a temple not an amusement park).
It is up to you to make sure the
engine is running and the temple is clean.
Use your time wisely (especially
weekends) to reset, refuel, and regenerate so you can break the "limp into
Monday" cycle.
What could you use less of?
What could you use more of?
