🧐PERFECTION OR PROGRESSION?🧐
MANY factors can determine how well, or how far you can push yourself during a training session; and a lot of the time, this isn’t something that can be helped.
📌 Did we get enough good quality sleep last night?😴
📌 Have we eaten enough/the right things to fuel our energy for session?🥙
📌 Is our brain in the right mindset? Are we stressed? Are we fully motivated to be here?😅
📌 Where are you in your cycle? / How are your hormone levels in general?⚖️
Does this mean, that if we have a session (or multiple) that don’t go as planned, where maybe we couldn’t progress our weights, or we couldn’t even match our regular weights used, that you won’t gain any benefits?🧐
🙅🏼♀️ ABSOLUTELY NOT! 🙅♂️
If you are still showing up and putting in all the effort you HAVE into your training, whether those weights progress or not from week to week, you will reap the benefits, because are still giving everything you have.💪🏼
It's only if you don’t even try to test yourself just because it feels harder that you won’t get the same benefits.
Training isn’t about perfection, its about progression.📊📈
You wont have a perfect training session every single time – NO ONE CAN; but you can decide that you will continue to test yourself regardless of feeling tired, or weaker – once we’ve had better sleep, or remembered to eat, or our hormones are more balanced out, then we will see our strength and abilities return back to normal, and we can continue to test and push for the weights used to increase again.🏆
