Every spring it’s the same story.
Septembers here tomorrow and it seems suddenly the sun is back, the running groups are starting up, and you’re doing three sessions a week because it feels good to move again.
But we might need reminding that motivation and capability are not the same thing.
Motivation is a feeling and we can feel it being fueled by the sunlight.
Capability is built slowly, by asking your body to adapt over weeks.
Week 1 feels great.
Week 2 we might push a bit harder because why wouldn’t we? 🙄
Week 3 brings the tight calf or the cranky lower back that “wasn’t there before.” 🫣
And that’s the space between how ready you feel and how ready your tissue actually is.
Save this before your next “comeback week.”
If you want to build capability, spring and summer intakes for Mybod in Motion live online bodyweight training starts soon. DM me to find out more.
