My workouts don’t look the same all year long. 💪
I love to run, but I don’t run particularly well in the heat. So when summer rolls around, my running naturally decreases.
What takes its place? A lot more tennis. 🎾
I’m outside, moving in different directions, sprinting, reacting, rotating and having fun. But tennis also takes time and puts different demands on my body, so the rest of my training changes with it.
One thing that stays consistent throughout the year is strength training. I also continue to prioritize mobility because I want my body to keep moving well, not just now, but for decades to come.
When the weather cools down, I’ll naturally start running more again. 🏃♀️
And that’s the point.
Your exercise routine doesn’t have to look the same 365 days a year.
Different seasons of life and different seasons of the year can call for different types of movement.
Sometimes we run more.
Sometimes we lift more.
Sometimes we play a sport.
Sometimes we need more recovery.
Changing things up isn’t necessarily losing consistency. It can actually be part of staying consistent.
The goal isn’t to force yourself to follow the exact same routine all year.
It’s to keep moving, keep challenging your body in different ways, maintain the things that matter, like strength and mobility, and find movement you genuinely enjoy.
Your routine can change.
The commitment to your health doesn’t have to. ❤️
