Recently I was approached by a young lady seeking workout information. She has a goal to lose weight by her 35th birthday. I can’t wait for her to accomplish her goal and set more goals for the future. I’ll be the first to tell you, I’m no expert, but I’m more than willing to share the information that I’ve learned throughout my personal journey. She began to workout with me this week and has done an awesome job! She seems as though she is willing to go the extra mile to get the results she desires.
I’ve never really had a partner. I usually just do my own thing. It has definitely been a learning experience for me. I have tons of respect for those that train people. One thing that I realized this week is that I need her just as much as she needs me. I’ve been inconsistent at times and it shows. Having her with me has definitely kept me on my toes and forced me to be consistent with my workouts. This past Saturday, I did not feel like getting out of my warm, comfy bed to go the gym. I didn’t hear from my partner the previous day, so I thought she had no intentions of hitting the gym on a Saturday morning. Then it came, a text from HER asking if we were going to meet at the gym. Grrr!!! I quickly got myself together and headed to the gym after seriously contemplating not going. We got in awesome leg workout! I was thankful for receiving her text. It was the extra push that I needed. Otherwise, I would have continued to lie in the bed and just think about the gym. We all know how many calories that burns!
Till next time…
