FitFriday #3: When Life Doesn’t Give You Lemons….

May 22, 2015 Posted by Hannah Boyl FitFriday, Fitness

…make orange juice instead!
Have you ever started a workout challenge or program and had it fall apart because, as we all know, life happens? You get off track by a day or two and feel like “this isn’t working out as planned” and/or “this just isn’t the right time.”

This happens more than you’d think…in the past 6 months it has happened to me at least twice and it almost happened again this past week! But, this week I wasn’t going to let my busy schedule of work, school and studying get in the way of getting some type of physical activity in, especially since last week I committed to 20 minutes a day and managed to complete the challenge!

If you have an off day or things just aren’t going as planned don’t completely give up. If feasible, a little bit of something is ALWAYS better than nothing. Here’s what I did this past week on those days that I was too busy or tired to get to the gym but knew it was important to stay active. A ten-minute, simple workout to keep the movement going.

ten minutes or less

Just remember, don’t give up, because even if life doesn’t present you with lemons, you still have the option to make orange juice.

15 Benefits of Exercise That AREN’T Related to Losing Weight or Looking Good

Dec 1, 2017

It can get a tad bit annoying when I hear people talk about how they choose not participate in physical activity. There's a never-ending list of excuses: I don't need to lose weight, I don't have time, I don't want to look muscle-y, or they just don't think it's going to benefit them. 

Like seriously?! You think you don't need this in your life?! Well, I'm about to tell you why EVERYONE needs to be physically active. 

This is an addition to a post from two years ago. The first post I did wanted to take a step back from the science and the statistics and scale that back to make it personal; letting you know how exercise may directly impact you. The first ten reasons can be found here with few added notes and then the additional points below those. 

Don’t Let Barriers Become Excuses

Oct 6, 2017

Excuses, way too common...

It seems as if excuses are getting easier to come up with and eating healthy, exercising, and taking care of our bodies is becoming more difficult. That’s all simply perception and I think we all need to give ourselves a little reality check now and then.
