Taking it to the Next Level

Wow, the holidays are already here, and with them, temptation. Not just to overindulge in both food and drink, but to skip our regular workouts. We’re all busy and a little stressed, many of us have travel on the horizon or guests coming to visit, and there is just too much to do. How can we squeeze that workout in and stay on track and still make it to the office party, get all our shopping done and cook for what seems like a hundred guests? The friends in our group workouts are flaking or leaving town, it’s too cold for the beach fitness program and you have so much going on, you just don’t think you can make time for that personal training session that you scheduled ages ago.

Stop those thoughts—now more than ever, we need to stay with the program. We need to de-stress and keep up with those conditioning methods that have got us where we are today. It’s the one block of time you can dedicate to yourself—and when you do so, the rest of your day and week will run so much smoother. We’ve got to take the time to connect to ourselves and our bodies, or everything will start to go awry. Skipping workouts and getting off track is exactly why people get sick, depressed and a little heavier on the scale during this time of year. Treat that workout time like gold. Let nothing else come between you and whatever workout you need to do right now. When everyone else is trying to undo the holiday damage, you’ll be elevating to the next level—and it will feel absolutely amazing. This is exactly why I will not miss my BMA workouts this season!
