The last month or more has seen me be a big pile of lazy when it comes to training at the gym. I have a training buddy who pushes me when I bother turning up but lately that hasn’t been as often as I’ve been sleeping in. I’m not sure if it’s because I haven’t been enjoying the routine we’ve been doing or just one of those phases.
In theory it should be easier to get up at 5.40 am as it’s light at that time now and it’s warmer too. So why the laziness? Who knows. From now on, I’m going to regularly post inspiration photos to give myself a kick in the bum. I need to fix my diet and my training. Here’s the first piece of inspiration. It’s good that he’s keeping warm!
You are the only one who’s able to motivate you. Set a goal that gets you going. Make an appointment with a photographer in x months of time. Plan a trip or a party you want to look your absolute best for (Mardi Gras??). Make bet with a friend in a similar situation and then talk every evening about your progress (and send him a cheese-cake right before the time is up).
Does your ‘phase’ coincide with when you started working full-time again? If you are not getting enough sleep, all motivation flies out the window.
Could you go instead during your lunch-break? Or go to sleep earlier, so it’s easier to wake up in the morning at 5:40. Could your Gym-buddy pick you up in the morning?
BTW, I hope you’re not comparing yourself to all the beefcake that you post here. What I’ve seen the other day in your little Aussielicious video was plenty hot, so no reason to panic over a few missed work-outs or munched fast-food.
Change the routine - it isnt motivating you.
in winter strangely, i find it so easy to get up early, about the same time as you. but since it’s warmed up i haven’t been so motivated.. so im going evenings, nice change. try that? if doing cardio, try the dark room (as in the no-lights cardio room at FF Cross & George st), that’s a nice change. definitely recommend Body Balance class too.
Sounds like you need to work with mental fatigue or emotions.
Go to your local herbalist and ask for some St. John’s Wart or something for what you are going through. Or try getting 8 hours or more sleep at night sweetie.
I mean I read your blog every day and would find it sad to find it not updated daily. Keep up the good work.
