Today’s episode of Garage Fitness… 💪🏻
Went to bed at 2 a.m. and somehow still dragged myself out of bed at 7:30 this morning. I almost skipped it, but I showed up anyway. Then I had the brilliant idea to run a lap around the neighborhood wearing weights… and now I can barely walk. 😂
I get asked all the time why I record these workouts. Truthfully, I do it for me. They push me to keep showing up, keep improving, and keep myself accountable. When you’re working out alone, everything feels like you’re doing it right. It’s not until I watch the video back that I notice my form, what needs work, and where I can improve.
If these videos motivate even one person to get up and move, then they’ve served a purpose.
My progress has been slow, but it is progress. I can see it in the way my muscles are changing and in how my clothes fit. There are still days I don’t feel comfortable in my own skin, but then I remind myself… I’m 43, not 20. This isn’t about being perfect. It’s about becoming stronger than I was yesterday.
So here’s your reminder… you don’t have to be perfect. You just have to keep showing up. 🩷
