Milestone day 🥳🌈
12 months to the day since I snapped my patella tendon playing football 🙄 and was told I’d not work / do sports for at least 12 months 😟 The thought of not maintaining my job and my daily HIIT workouts was so hard to come to terms with.
From the 6 days in hospital, excruciatingly painful post-surgery recuperation 🤢, hours and hours of medical appointments / physio & muscle rehabilitation, modified workouts (with many tears shed sat on the gym floor), daily sessions with my GameReady machine… to this day……. I needed a ‘milestone challenge’…….
So this morning I took on another 1000 burpee challenge (which I did during the first lockdown in 2020, when I was fit and injury free!)
Today I took almost 8 minutes off my original time, smashing 1000 burpees in 49m35s 💪🏼🥳 Mentally and physically grueling - just like the last 12 months 🤪
I’m so happy to have come this far, grateful for so much and owe a big thank you to everyone who’s supported me.
The power of a positive attitude must never be underestimated.
My The Body Coach journey continues….. 🙏🏼
