Freemont Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Hi Rebels, I'm sick and tired of feeling bad about not working out. So, I signed up for a 4 week crossfit on-ramp program, thinking that if I just showed up and worked hard 3x a week, I could stop feeling bad about not doing it the rest of the time. Now I'm getting nervous about it - my class doesn't start for another 10 days, after I get back from vacation. I'm basically going to suck at everything, which I'm ok with. I'm going to call it a victory if I just show up and make some progress and don't injure myself. I could really benefit from more intensity in most parts of my life. I tend to plug along slowly, when a series of sprints might be a better approach. We'll see if I can handle upping the intensity. See you around the playground,Freemont Quote Link to comment
Elastigirl Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 Sounds like fun! It is good to up the intensity once in a while. But don't overlook the power of being the one that plods along slowly either. I've always kind of looked down on myself for that, but then I decided it really is my superpower! I don't come out with intensity but I am good at being consistent and steady. After being on NF for 2 years, that consistent, plugging along slowly, one step at a time, has added up to a bunch of steps and I am stronger and can do cool tricks like the crow Quote Wisdom 22.5 Dexterity 13 Charisma 15 Strength 21 Constitution-13 "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind' Luke 10; 27 Link to comment
