Work For It

Working out and fitness have been my go-to since Geoff has been in medical school. It’s been a safe space and just the release I need to stay strong. Since we left Nevada, it has been hard for me to get back into the groove with working out. But I’m back in and loving it! I am going through the Women’s Specialization program by Jeff Nippard and Stephanie Buttermore. So far so good. It’s six days a week with four of those days being devoted to lower body. Oui. I don’t hate working my lower body, because every girl wants a butt and toned legs, but they aren’t my favorite. My favorite days are upper body days. Maybe that’s because I see progress there first. But when I took the photo (above) I was like “dayumn girlllll, look at those arms and shoulders. Work it!!! Yassss!!”

I will be honest, motivating myself to go to the gym (which is just downstairs in my apartment building) is hard AF. Like hard. Why? Because I don’t always have the motivation to workout. However, when you lack motivation you have to rely on discipline. (Thank you Christian Guzman for that reminder). Even then, sometimes I don’t have that. But I’m human, we all have our days. That being said, everyone has time. You have to make time. Whether or not that’s getting up before everyone else or doing it really late when all you want to do is sleep.

No one is going to get you the results you want but you. You have to put in the work. The time. You have to want the goal/result so bad, that you’re going to do anything and everything till you get there. So how bad to YOU want it?

Let’s get this croissant! (Took this from Ally Besse – she says it all the time and I love it!)
