| My personal trainer |
When it comes to working out I've never done group (my lack of balance is one-enough-said reason!) unless it's hiking with my family.
To remain truly motivated, I've always gravitated towards activities that require that least amount of effort before I exert any myself.
Lace up a pair and hit the trail.
But in the winter months when that requires layering up in fleece, I opt out of the wind chill factor and head for the rec center.
Initially I struggled with the challenge to stay focused as my natural motivators were now artificial in nature--a trio of wall-mounted LCD screens; grunting outbursts from the over-muscled and the clanging of metal against metal.
I needed to tune out all the distractions!
I briefly entertained investing in a personal trainer to stay driven, but decided I needed the commitment to come from within.
Thankfully, I have a nearly daily private session to get me through lap after lap and rep after rep.
Today I am grateful for:
*my 1st generation iPod--it's the best investment in a personal trainer I've ever made.
