Personal Training NYC ClientA

So, you know how you can be eating poorly and not working out and it seems like you’re not doing too much damage and then one day it all just shows up?  Same thing on the flip side.  I had been doing a very good job, working out, eating right and sure I was seeing progress, but then one day, right before christmas, all my work, just “showed up.”  I mean, my stomach looked flat, my legs toned, I was starting to see lines (slight but they were there!) for my abs, etc.  Overall I just felt amazing.  Then I went on vacation for 2 weeks.

So, on vacation my diet pretty much consisted of fried cheese every meal, every day for two weeks.  My exercise plan consisted of walking to and from a hammock!  Though since I did realize I was doing no activity, I decided to do pushups every day and add one a day (okay so I didn’t start this on day one, but still).  So, now I can do 60 pushups straight!  So at least there is that.

Anyway, I guess I’m happy that I had worked so hard prior to vacation because even though I was a disaster during my time away and I certainly slid backawards, I shudder to think of what I would have looked like if I hadn’t been working out before! So, now with the new year here I’m back in my routine at work and am ready to recommit to the plan that was working before.  This week I’ve been eating better, not great, but definitely a vast improvement over the previous two weeks.  I haven’t worked out a ton, only Monday with Terri, but I intend to go tonight and tomorrow to my favorite class.  I know that one is going to be a killer though.  So, anyway, I don’t feel too terrible about things.  I had a great time on vacation, really enjoyed myself and I didn’t ruin everything. 

So, I don’t have any new tricks about how to get back to where I was, I just know I have to be consistent and work hard and the rest will fall in to place.
