Garden thangs!
Work hard.
Play hard.
Restore.
Repeat.
When you make healthy a lifestyle, you learn to do everything in moderation. It's a layer of restoration that keeps us grounded. Being caught red-handed kinda has the same effect 😳😵. It's also our birthday month. And we are *both* quintessential virgos!

According to the scale, I am failing.
But 👀 I spy shoulders and traps coming back; I've missed you all!
Bye-bye scale...for now at least.
Peep the form adjustment...and notice the difference in muscle engagement.
Form is everything. And getting a trainer who won't let you sacrifice form for weight is crucial. is whipping me in to shape for sure.
And the perfect time to get your form right is in the beginning, before you go heavy. Lifting heavy adds enough stress to the body (as it should), so there is no need to increase your risk for misalignment and strains/tears just to get through a movement.
Don't be afraid to hang out at a lower weight for a while as you perfect your form.

Rest and Recovery.
It means different things and comes in different forms to different people. But recovery aids in muscle adaptation, boosts mental health, can reduce anxiety, offers balance and can also allow time for soft tissue repair.
Foam rolling, myofascial release or massage.
Stretch it out.
Yoga.
Active rest (swimming, cycling or slow hiking).
Unplugging.
Sleep!
Whatever you do, whatever works for you, don't pass on the rest and recovery. Your mind, body and soul will thank you for it.
to this much needed recovery break last week.
How important is ? It is priority #1 for us, and it has taken longer than we anticipated (and longer than we would like to admit) to figure out what that looks like. We have actually semi-linked some of our recovery with accountability as we plot what we want to do next with .
Accountability comes in different forms. Some people are good to go on their own, with their mind and a journal enough to hold them accountable.
For us, 1/2 of our duo is the ass kicker. The other 1/2 needs her ass kicked. Depends on the day as to who fills which role.
Don't be afraid to try new things, create new rituals and even try unconventional practices to can keep you accountable to whatever goal you set on your healthy lifestyle journey.

If you suffer from episodic migraines, consider keeping a food journal. Hormonal changes are a huge trigger, but so are some foods.
Here is a partial list. Of course, everything on this list isn't a trigger for everyone, and this list doesn't include all of the triggers.

P: 95, F: 73, C: 24 (slightly under goal calories, but I hit my protein and I was actually full).
and I have different eating approaches and we will share some details on those differences from time to time.
I am leaving a mostly ketogenic approach, and moving into cleaner choices overall with fewer restrictions. I can honestly say that keto works. But I don't really think it is some magic panacea. At the end of the day, a calorie deficit is still what matters. You can say you aren't counting calories, but if you are placing limits on your macros, guess what? You are restricting your calories!
In a future post, I'll outline why I made the choice to step away from keto, even though I lost about 12 scale lbs rather quickly. Note: the scale isn't always your friend. And those first few pounds that seem to disappear overnight when you first start keto are not fat lbs. And that rate of weight loss is not sustainable. But that is a discussion for another day.
At the end of the day, the key to steady progress is tracking. Whether that is macros, calories, work outs, etc., make sure you know your I/Os (ins and outs).
to just a slice of when made me fulfill my commitment to a home workout...even after I got a flu shot.
The difference between making gains and constantly starting over is choosing to honor the commitment. And that commitment is different for everybody. One person's goal may be to enter a fitness competition. Another person's goal may be to say no to candy bars today. Whatever your commitment is, find a way to honor it.
Start every day by asking yourself, "What am I committed to today?" I know it has helped me keep focus when things start pulling me in different directions. Also, having an accountability partner say, "get yo punk ass up!" can be helpful 😜
But no matter what and whatever works...honor the commitment to yourself.
In this world where instant gratification is a must, don't forget to take some time for yourself...in what ever form allows you to recharge.
We combined our activity with recovery by hiking Stone Mountain, then taking in the glorious sunrise. This beautiful planet offers many alternatives to gyms and studios if you ever want to mix it up.
