Happy Friday! I couldn’t be any happier it is Friday. This is been the longest week of my liiiiiife. Full transparency, my workouts have been lacking and I am having a real tough time mustering up the motivation to get in workouts these days. I never used to have a problem dragging my butt to the gym even when I didn’t want to. These days, my excuses have been beating out my willpower to go and I am not proud of it. Something has got to change because my mental state is in the gutter and I physically don’t feel good when my workouts aren’t consistent. So, I am going to take some time over the weekend to re-evaluate my goals and what I need to do to get back to a consistent workout routine.
Time has been against me lately, but I did manage to get in a 30 minute workout the other day. When I don’t have much time I like to do circuits or supersets. Instead of doing a single exercise at a time, I superset them and don’t rest until after the second exercise. I am able to get in more exercises and volume in a shorter amount of time. I see many superset workouts in my near future!
