The key is consistency

Motivation and energy don't always show up so when you are....

Unmotivated - show up
Busy - make it a priority
Tired - get to bed early
Stressed - go anyway you'll feel better

You are the key to setting your priorities, allocated your time and reaching your goals.

You do you!!!

Knowing and doing are two very different things!

I know I need RECOVERY but is it easy to do....
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!

Does my head tell me to just get up and train more... ABSOLUTELY

But to achieve what I want RECOVERY/REST days are just as important as my training days.

This is where the muscle grows, the hormones regulate (especially at my age 48), the inflammation calms as the body relaxes and stress reduces.

Yep train hard and consistently but recover too!

Core before strength training to ensure the body is stabilised, aligned and muscles engaged.

This allows recruitment of the correct muscles during strength training.

☑️ Control body movement in exercises
☑️ Minimising the recruitment of back muscles
☑️ Keeping alignment in the body while training
☑️ Focusing on correct muscle engagment
☑️ Stability for correct technique

Saturday's are for shoulders and glutes 💪🍑

So here are a few of my morning shoulder exercises.

These are kept on repeat every week and have been for months.

Focus is on developing/building muscle and increasing strength.

Fuelled by whole foods and routine.

Love the basics and consistently training!

When on holidays do you train?

For me holidays are always about doing your favourite things and I love to train so I do it first thing in the morning. Im actually excited to get up early to exercise.
The best way to start the day!

Do the gyms always have the equipment I need for my program ..... NO

So...
I can choose to not go because it's not the same or I make do with the equipment I have and stay as true as possible to the muscles I'm targeting on that training day.

Today was about glutes and there are no standing squat machines, no smith machines, limited weights and benches so we make do...

Was it the same? Absolutely not
Was it better than not going? 100%
Did I hit PBs? Nope not even close
Did I get a pump? Yes I sure did
Do I feel like I worked out? Yep and I feel good
Am I still working to my goals? I completely am

I say do the workout you will never regret it!!!!

Now time for my other favourite things...family, sun, water, outdoors, walking, relaxing, food and games!
