If you had told me a year ago that I would enjoy exercising, that I would enjoy that feeling of finishing a workout that I never believed I would be able to complete, I would have laughed in your face.
When I exercise now though, I love the feeling of accomplishing something that is making me stronger, more powerful and most importantly, improving my health and fitness. Each time we sweat through exercise, we are getting our hearts pumping, getting the blood flow circulating and testing our mindsets. We are building up our muscles and improving our strength.
I have found personally over these last few weeks that by doing the BBG workouts, my strength is already improving. If you're not familiar with the workouts, there are three a week that consist of four sets of movements with reps. These are circuits and you repeat both to make up the four sets. The weeks alternate so you repeat the moves from Week 1 in Week 3, Week 2 in Week 4 and so on. This is brilliant though especially when you repeat the circuits because you notice how much your body and muscles already adapt to complete the movements!
Everybody's progress is different however, and sometimes you may need to adapt a movement if you are struggling to complete it. After all, any move is improving your form and fitness and you don't want to injure yourself if you are finding something a little difficult. Plus, imagine that satisfying feeling once you can complete it further down the line!
So if you're doubting your progress, aim to get moving every day. No matter how big or small, every little bit of walking, running, cycling or jump lunges are all counting towards improving your fitness.
