?Good morning Beautiful People! I was thinking about the weekend ahead and thought about you.?
?Motivation & Just Getting Started Can be Mentally Overwhelming - SO I AM GOING TO MAKE IT EASY FOR YOU ;-)
?Here are a couple Simple Things You can Do NOW that will make a difference - and give you FORWARD MOMENTUM:
?Start Today or Tomorrow... Today is better since this is a small step - YOU GOT THIS!!
1. Day 1= Go for a hike or walk or do some kind of physical activity for 20-30 minutes today. For Example:
✔️Go for a hike
✔️Go for a walk
✔️If in a multi-story building - use the stairwell and go up and down a few flights of stairs
✔️Go for a bike ride
✔️Walk on a treadmill if it is bad weather (take it slow if you need and maybe do a slight incline)
✔️Jump on a row machine for 20 min
✔️Swim laps
**Do some light stretching immediately afterwards... not before when muscles/ligaments are cold.
2. Don't Skip Breakfast. Then - No major changes - just eat less per sitting and eat every 2-3 hours max.
3. Day 2 = Couple of Simple Things as follows:
✔️Do Planks on forearms... keep body straight and tighten tummy while doing. Start with 30 sec + 30 sec rest x 3. If feel ok then increase to 1 min plank, 30 sec rest, x 3.
✔️Push Up Position (see attached form - see elbows tucked in a little - not flared out to the sides)
✔️If you can - do 1 push up at least. Then rest 30-45 sec then try to do another x 3-5 times.
✔️If you can - do 5-10, rest 30-45 sec - repeat 3 times.
✔️If you can't - then Hold push up position at the top. rest 30 sex - repeat 3 times.
4. Fill up a water body both days and drink it - and refill at least 1 or 2 times.
?Forward momentum = Action. Action gives you Motivation to Continue.
?So Motivation is too mental and is fleeting.
?But making small doable actions - just one action at a time - Gives you Motivation to do more actions.
?Have a Beautiful Day - YOU GOT THIS!!!
?ACTION FIRST - MOTIVATION WILL FOLLOW?
*NOTE: you don't have to do on your fists like I am doing in these pictures. I had just hurt my wrist and this is a way to do push ups that protects your wrists.
