Fake fit Friday round 2
Added 2020-10-16 14:56:25 +0000 UTCWith everything happening at once I really haven’t been able to focus on my fitness at all. I’m still eating bad, and I’m still not working out to the level I should be. My motivation and drive at the gym is at an all time low. That said, I’m not going to let this low bring me down. I tend to take these feeling and use them as motivation to push myself to be better and I swear I will do exaclty that. It’s too easy to get caught in a downward spiral especial when the world seem to be collapsing around you.
The photo I’m posting is from quarantine. When I had no gym to go to. List most people I slipped into the “eating and drinking my life away” when quarantine started but I used that to get myself back into a place I enjoyed. For me the way I look, and the way I feel are directly connected. Not because of how I ACTUALLY look but because of the lifestyle I lead that allows me to look like this.
In this picture I wasn’t drinking alone in my bedroom, I was getting 9 hours of sleep, I was going outside to get fresh air, I was working up a sweat, and I was eating a very healthy diet of food that I was making myself.
I’m sharing this with all of your becuase that’s what I like to do on patreon but I’m also sharing this for Me. Something I can look at next Friday, and the Friday after and the Friday after, and so on. I’m owning this low and making the commitment to pick myself up.

2020-10-16 16:06:20 +0000 UTCI found motivation really hard when I was stuck with just home workouts too. But I also couldn't go back to the gyms because so many people were of the mindset of "I'm healthy" and thus not following guidelines like wearing masks,and I'm at high risk. But I was able to very VERY slowly start building a home gym with some friends. That's helped a lot, but the problem now is ordering equipment is a nightmare. My point is, it's all about finding a way out of the rut, and the answer isn't the same for everyone. We're here to help and support you no matter what.

2020-10-16 15:58:27 +0000 UTCAlways remember, you are not alone, even if you're feeling down. There are people who are around you who will support you, listen to your doubts and concerns, and help you rise. We can tell you you're awesome, but there can always be that quiet voice of doubt that whispers in your ear. Take that doubt, knock it over and steal it's lunch money. When you can't manage on your own, draw strength from those around you who, like us, believe in you. Even during troubling times, you're loved and supported. Remember that.

2020-10-16 15:42:42 +0000 UTCI'm starting to get back to my old physical self now that the gym is open. This would be easier if I hadn't messed up my right shoulder doing too many pull-ups at the local playground as a stop-gap during the gym closures, but things are starting to look a bit better in the mirror, so I feel you.

2020-10-16 15:06:17 +0000 UTCThanks. One of the things that really helps is to remind people that they're not alone in being down. It's so simple to assume you're alone, but there are so many of us going through this.
