As I mentioned in a previous post I have never got that point where I find exercise easy – I love how it make me feel but I never enjoy it.
People say you have to push through the first few months and then you will love it. Well I NEVER love it, but I do know it’s good for me and not just physically but mentally as well.
This year I want to be the best version of me. So exercise is a part of that. I want to be fit and healthy to enjoy life with Aston.
I have been training with Spark Movement Studio for some time now and today as grumbled and groaned my way through another session I wondered why it is a trash talk it all so much and if that has anything to do with me never finding enjoyment out of.
So I am here by officially banning the trash talk at training for the next 5 sessions. Hopefully it helps.
I believe in the power of language in other areas of my life so hopefully talking about training more positively will help me feel more positive about it.
Oh and the only exercise I have ever really enjoyed doing is yoga so I am building yoga practice back into my life after about a 4 year hiatus! Wish me luck on that one. Attending class once a week but trying to practice every morning, even if it is only for five minuets.
I don’t remember much of the postures with any confidence so I am starting slow – but it is all about making it a part of my daily routine.
Hey Elle! Glad to see I’m not the only one that finds the whole thing a chore. YES! I love how I feel when I’ve been exercising, I love feeling more energetic and more focused. Dragging myself out of bed in the morning is hard work – I have to make myself get that gear on in the morning & start while my brain’s not awake enough to protest… ha!
After a few month’s break, I’ve just started again – quick yoga then a walk. This time I’m documenting my progress, so I’ll let you know how I go!

That’s awesome Julie! Keep me posted – maybe we can keep each other encouraged! Getting dressed will always be the hardest part for me!
Hi Elle,
I look forward to meeting you at PB 2014. I think your sticking with exercise even thought you are not fond of it says a lot for your character!
See you in August,
Sail Away Girl
