Works For Me

What works for me may not work for you.  That's awesome!  Why, because we are all different people accepting our strengths and weaknesses.  It is important to grab onto the things we can do, and perform at our best not holding anything back.  Acceptance of who we are and celebrating our strengths is essential for our health and fitness.  I forgo push-ups for example because they will aggravate my neck injury, but put me on a chest press and I am good to go.

It could be easy to sulk back into a corner and cry over spilt milk and my loss of certain athletic abilities, but what would that do for me?  Nothing.  Life has given me a great purpose and a strong will to fight for my fitness.  I have good and bad days just like you.  Over several years of training, I have come to really enjoy what I can do through modification of workouts, and creative challenge in program development.  I do what works for me and it's fabulous.

It is important to never give up hope and know you can achieve great things, reach your goals and DO what it takes to get there.  I found what works for me and each of us has the ability to find their strong and put it to work literally.  It doesn't matter how long it takes because life and fitness is all about the journey. The important thing is walking it, putting aside fear, letting go of a "failure" attitude, and embracing who you are right where you are.
