FitFriday #3: When Life Doesn't Give You Lemons....

Hannah Boyl May 22, 2015

...make orange juice instead! Have you ever started a workout challenge or program and had it fall apart because, as we all know, life happens? You get off track by a day or two and feel like "this isn't working out as planned" and/or "this just isn't the right time."

This happens more than you'd think...in the past 6 months it has happened to me at least twice and it almost happened again this past week! But, this week I wasn't going to let my busy schedule of work, school and studying get in the way of getting some type of physical activity in, especially since last week I committed to 20 minutes a day and managed to complete the challenge!

If you have an off day or things just aren't going as planned don't completely give up. If feasible, a little bit of something is ALWAYS better than nothing. Here's what I did this past week on those days that I was too busy or tired to get to the gym but knew it was important to stay active. A ten-minute, simple workout to keep the movement going.

ten minutes or less

Just remember, don't give up, because even if life doesn't present you with lemons, you still have the option to make orange juice.

I had the "Thats totally me" reaction to a few too many things said in this podcast... Thinking about what it would be like to make my phone just that, a phone.
And it's actually incredibly ironic that I'm sharing this post about not using social media on social media...🤦‍♀️ How are you with social media, electronics, etc?

Real box jumps for the first time today since breaking my arm.

Scary AF. 
Mostly because I have an irrational fear of falling these days. 🤷‍♀️ @mountain_tactical

On March 2nd I'll be doing a Nutrition Seminar at The Pursuit in Frankenmuth! ⠀
⠀
This won't be your typical nutrition class where we talk about what carbs, fats, and protein are and remind you that you need to drink water. I'll be going over some ways to implement nutrition into your life and why it's important. Topics will include what a general healthy diet looks like, the "right" way to lose weight, and how to eat for physical activity. ⠀
⠀
I'll talk for an hour and then I'll let you ask some questions for a while too!⠀
Find the event on Facebook by going to my page or searching "Nutrition Seminar at The Pursuit."⠀
⠀
This seminar is $10/person and you can sign up with the link in my bio!⠀
Hope to see you there!⠀

Just over here doing one arm things. But one arm or not 10 round of this (40 sec work; 20 sec rest) burns! This was round 7. The side shuffles started out much lower than what you see here. 😅😅 Using the arm injury programming from @mountain_tactical
