Some days my body yells at me to just do a nice stretch routine or take a walk in nature. Either way I move and feel better without over working my body when it is telling me not to.
I've heard that some people get addicted to exercise and always envied them. I'm not one of them and never have been. Give me an excuse to get out of it and I'll take it 😂. It must be nice not to have to push yourself to do something you should.
Addiction is never a nice thing even if it is to exercise. A lot of times you end up doing too much. Like those runners who end up with massive coronaries.
I'm with you on not really wanting to exercise. But I feel as this 94 year old lady who summed it up beautifully: "I hate exercise, but my body loves it."
Hi, I just returned to martial arts this past Wednesday. 2 days after my return I decided to start doing home workouts like I always do (I skip public gyms because my social anxiety exerts energy getting there more than working out itself.) anywho, I felt light headed while doing some boxing workouts I decided to go on my own time on the ground doing easy 5 minute core workouts just to get a sweat in, wasn’t properly hydrating that day — stayed in bed whole morning and afternoon, so much can be the cause but it was a hiccup, getting my check up first week of August, I think this read resonated with me, will have to make some adjustments to my workout now that I am training in a dojo again.
This is exactly me. I love working out, hardly ever miss a day. I am an addict, for sure and have been for 30 years. I'm not sure I know how to take a day off. Yikes!

Smart of you to listen! 🤓

"Adopt what is useful, reject what is useless and add that which is specifically your own." That's my favourite Bruce Lee quote.
Thanks. You confirm what I've been thinking.
That and extra day of rest never killed anyone? 😜

If it's been 30 years then it's high time to start packing yourself. hope you're at least staying away from the punishing high intensity stuff 🧐
