There are days when it feels heavy and tiring to work out, but there are also days when you feel the positive energy and excitement to get up and productively start working out.  Long and busy workdays, lack of sleep, body soreness, or just not feeling the positive energy to work out are some reasons why you feel unmotivated, and this happens to everyone, and it’s completely normal, even for experienced athletes. Staying consistent with fitness isn't about staying motivated a

You know that feeling when you’re already running late, you finally get to the gym, and the first thing you think is, “I don’t have time to warm up today”? So you jump straight into your workout. The first few reps feel stiff but manageable. You push through. Then later that day, or the next morning, your body doesn’t feel right, and believe it or not, your shoulder feels like it was strained or irritated. Your hamstring feels tight. Your lower back is talking to you in a way

Fitness videos are saved on Instagram. You envision a healthier, more robust version of yourself that wakes up early and is energetic, optimistic, and disciplined.

That commitment is made every single New Year. And uttering this, "I'm going to be nice to myself this year." You will finally prioritize yourself, buy better food, and move more. You might start off strong with new workouts, healthier diets, and a fresh reason to work out.  After that, work gets hectic ,  and life happens .  Worries increase, and energy wanes. Energy wanes.
