A recap of my weekly workouts from the previous week.

Happy Monday! What a quick weekend. I legit need the time to slow down. So many things to do, so little time. OR I could probably make better use of my time. That would seriously benefit me. I think I just talked about this the other week, but let’s talk about it again.

You do not have to kill yourself in the gym every damn day.

Yes, you read that right. At the end of last year I got so burnt out and had no desire to go to the gym for a couple months. I was constantly tired, had no motivation, and wasn’t myself. I had been pushing myself for years – going 100%, not recovering enough, and not fueling right. After taking it easy for a few months and just doing my own thing, I finally got back into my routine, but wasn’t taking it as seriously. I mean I’m not going to the CrossFit games, nor do I want to.

It took me forever to realize this, but now that I am finally listening to my body, taking at least 2 rest days a week, sleeping more, and not dying everyday in the gym, I feel better than ever. I’m not constantly inflamed, I’m eating more than ever, and I am probably leaner than I’ve been in a long time. Constant stress (even from working out), is not good for you body. It needs time to recover.

Even after being more relaxed over the past handful of months, I’m still in great shape. I actually PR’d on a workout last week and I wasn’t dying afterwards. You can still get stronger and feel good.

If you feel burnt out, constantly stressed, have no motivation, maybe take a step back and look at your workout. Give your body the rest and recovery it deserves. I promise you, it will thank you.
