Happy New Year!
Personal should be my word for 2025 cause I’m coming for everything that has my name on it, that includes my health and fitness. In a radical move of self discipline and delirium, I’ve committed myself to 100 days of exercise/caring for my body through a Peloton challenge that includes stretching and meditation. ONE HUNDRED DAYS, that would have me completing the challenge on April 10, 2025.
As an individual that has never completed such a lofty fitness challenge a day in her life, I’ve been thinking of best practices based on my level of self-awareness to ensure I complete this challenge
See below:
- Take progress pictures and wear cute workout clothes. These Old Navy jumpsuits are my favorite.
- No overthinking, no forcing anything for the first two weeks. Whatever feels good to my body is what I’ll do. If that calls for deep stretching for a week, it is what it is. The goal is just to get in a routine
- I’m going to use that Pilates reformer that has been serving as a foot rest in my office as well as that Trek bike collecting dust in the garage
- I’ll post my workouts daily to my Instagram Stories, hopefully that will hold me accountable/inspire other folks to move their bodies daily
- Try my hardest to work out in the morning
- Meal plan, cause even though I’m not so concerned with weight loss, I do desire to build some muscle and tone up. The goal is high protein and less sugar
that would mean I’ll be drinking my liquor straight. - Reasonably make an exercise plan, switching things up to keep from getting bored
- Join a Challenges group, these usually do well to keep me motivated
- Stay off the fitness pages on IG. They make me overthink
- Post a picture of Tracee Ellis Ross somewhere where I can see it daily. The best of us need relatable motivation.
This might be the one. Yeah, this the one.
