The reaction if someone asked me how many times I’ve trained in the past 2 weeks...
-
First my neck seized up. My shoulders take quite a battering getting punched through the week, and with the number of hours I spend in a car or at a desk between them it’s not a great recipe.
-
I’ve also been way too low on sleep and too high on stress as there’s been fair bit of faecal matter on the fan of late.
-
Monday & Tuesday were 17hr days; I cut today short at 10hrs and went to chip and putt. I’m now gonna get 9hrs sleep ahead of hitting the gym in the morning.
-
But I’ve been for one run and one gym session in the past 11 days. Do I feel good for it? Nope... but my current hustle-circumstances haven’t given me much choice. Sometimes you have to prioritise and I’m not the type to sacrifice sleep for training (anymore - it’s taken some fuckups to get here).
-
I’m also not beating myself up about it. I can honestly say that every day I haven’t trained was for a good reason I’m content with and my personal goals haven’t slipped for it.
-
I could pretend to be setting a better “example” of exercise being “everything” but, whilst I do feel it’s a hugely foundational part of life, I’d rather be an honest example that sometimes the rest of life gets in the way.
-
Make conscious decisions and own them.

Inspired by @kinetic.diabetic being similarly transparent recently.
