#trainyourmind 2.0

Same alarm clocks - different experience ....

Today I met B at 6. When we arrived she told me we would be on the treadmill for 45 minutes. WHAT? I hate treadmills. And, 45 minutes is an eternity in gym land. The catch was, "you just have to push yourself". For 45 minutes, every 2ish minutes, I increased the incline decreased the speed - decreased the incline increased the speed - over and over and over again. Around the twenty minute mark, my legs felt like jello. I could no longer increase the speed, nor could I walk flat. It was strange. So, I had to psyche myself out:

"Just get to 30 minutes"
"You can do this, it's only two minutes"
"Far less than halfway to go"
"It's just walking" 
"Just take one step at a time"

Just like that, I made it to 45 minutes and felt great. Not tired at all, just jello legs. And, the icing on the cake was when I weighed at home: 250.4.

What's your struggle? Get disciplined today. Fight your battles. Win the race.
