discouraged. that basically describes my day at work and working out. thankfully it was busy at work today so i kept myself busy but when you are working out alone in your room and you suck at the workouts, nothing can distract you from being discouraged.
legs and back sucked. sucked. sucked. first of all, i have great lower body strength but i hate squats. hi, i'm p90x and all the legs workouts are squat related. great. so then, there was back, i don't have a random bar in my room to do pull ups, or to hang a resistance band from. so i did push ups instead, but it made me mad to know that i couldn't even try.
i was so discouraged that i was getting upset with myself and doubting if i should be doing these workouts. it's like the one time that i really want to get fit, i get put down by things. i think that the discouragement is like satans way of keeping me on the couch, eating cake (and i did eat just a little cake today... thanks mommy #2 hahah).
note to self: when you get discouraged, pray, do ab ripper x, or text kev g. (thank you by the way :) )
love yourself.
I am so proud of you Brookie! I know how hard it is to stay motivated with workouts, especially p90x! Just think, 6 short months from now you will be able to do all of the workouts with no problem. I enjoy reading your updates. You're inspiring me to start exercising again. I'll let you know how it goes. Until then, remember to laugh!
