I recently saw a reel explaining that, āif weāre lucky we only get to enjoy 80 summers in our lifetimeāā¦ and that got me.
Iām all for training consistentlyā¦ its a part of my mission.
But if you were to ask me what my training has been like during the month of August, it would look non existent.
My summer training looks a hell of a lot different than how I train in the winter and spring.
I stay active in the summer by moving my body outside.
Surfing, hiking, kayaking, rock climbing (that was a new one), biking, swimming, running, and if I am strength training, itās mostly body weight or free weights at the park or boardwalk.
A huge core value of mine is play.
My biz mantra is: I train so I can play forever in this game we call life.
If youāve been following me for some time, you know Im all for building and maintaining muscle. And you best believe I prioritize thar 365.
But building muscle happens when you donāt over stress the body with rigorous rigid workouts 24/7.
sometimes building muscle looks like loosening the reigns of your schedule and enjoying what the season has to offer you right outside your door.
Pretty soon youāll be begging for this weather. I challenge you to take the opportunity to be more playful in your workouts these next couple weeks.
Consider this your Deload week or two or three ;)
You might even notice the weight youāre trying to desperately lose, comes off easier with this reset.
Your training schedule will always there when you return.
And if you donāt have a program to come back to, I go you.
Next week, Im doing a flash sale on some of my fitness programs and nutrition offers. You can gwt many of my top programs for up to 60% off!
Stay tuned
