RE: 🅰️ THE STRUGGLE IS REAL: SIT VS. STEP [May.06.2021]

I have had such a hard time exercising regularly over the past year. I walk at least a couple miles a day with my dog and occasionally go for a hike, but other than that has just been a lazy puddle.

I know it sounds odd, but I really don’t like running outside and much prefer a treadmill in a climate controlled environment. On a treadmill I can just get into some music and trance out, whereas outside I have to stay alert for obstacles. Also I really like the speed control and biofeedback treadmills and other equipment provide.

I’ve tried to get a kettle bell routine going at home, but my apartment is too conducive to an idle, low energy feeling.

I got my second shot on Monday and am so relieved to get back to a gym routine. It is going to be very difficult to get back into it, but keeping my fitness goals in mind is enough incentive to push through and make the change.

Thanks for making this post and inviting us to talk about the challenges of staying in shape 🙂
