Well firstly, hello 👋🏼 yes. I’m alive and making my first post on social media in WEEKS
Life has been manic and I’m back in London after the MOST wonderful 10 days back home in South Africa 🇿🇦 almost 3 years since I’ve seen my beautiful family and the trip was so important 🙏🏻
A little something I thought I would touch on, and that is “training / gyming on holiday”
The amount of messages and “calling out” I got in my dm’s about taking time out, relaxing, not being so busy all the time, giving myself a break, questioning why I was working out when I was supposed to be on holiday …
These conversations can go one of 2 ways. It’s a preference at the end of the day. Do I enjoy working out? YES. Does movement make me feel good? YES? Do I do it often - absolutely, it’s good for me, my body and my mind.
Working out should never come from guilt. Or fear. NEVER. If you want to move your body, do it, if you don’t feel like it, then don’t. Easy peasy lemon squeezy 🍋
Think twice before questioning somebody on their actions. Instead of asking “why are you working out on holiday” rather turn inward and ask YOURSELF, “why am I bothered about you working out on holiday”
I can assure you, you’ll get a very different kind of answer 😉
