I thought I could just do it on my own...easy peasy. I recently stopped working out with my personal trainer (not because she's not awesome 'cause she is) but our schedules just couldn't jive anymore. So, I figured, I have weights at home, I can just work out on my own, no problemo! I had all the best intentions of doing my full strength training sessions 2 to 3 times a week for an hour. I had a couple of dumbbells, a dedicated workout space and told myself, “This time, I’ll stay consistent.” But the truth? After a few weeks, the weights just sat there collecting dust. I really don't love strength training so I'd find every reason (excuse) to put it off...or I’d just forget. I started thinking this was not going to work... I just wasn’t disciplined enough. Here’s what I eventually figured out: the problem was my approach. Once I shifted from trying to work out for an hour 2 or 3 times a week to creating small, realistic steps (workouts)— with some fun habits stacked on — everything changed. I didn’t just “start strength training”… I became someone who actually looks forward to my strength training time (well kinda, but enough to make me do it! 😂). Here are the 3 things that worked for me in a nutshell:
