A Year In - How The Pandemic Has Impacted Our Workouts

It’s Been 365 Days and some of us….…are still feeling lost on our fitness journey. For me, it’s been a hard year. I started with the same mindset of this will give me ample time to workout. And it has, but other things have kind of gotten in the way of that. For me, it is injury. Yes the back issue I have written about before – still here, still looming. It reminds me that if I workout too much I will be out for a week or two here and there, it also reminds me that something like pushing in a bench can throw it out completely. It’s really annoying if I’m being frank. I went from hauling loads of weight (the culprit) to moving tiny weights, completely seated, and for a longer period of time.

Black Lives Matter

Today, my wife, who is half black, our daughter, and I went on a hike. We are in an area in a cabin surrounded by Trump and “Blue Lives Matter” flags. Most of you think I’m a “tough motherfucker”, but we are out here and I’m afraid of my wife being called the “N word”, or worse. If we are seen as a same sex couple, Asian and Black, with a child, I fear we could be attacked because of how emboldened people are feeling by this current administration. We’ve woken up to the murders of George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery, Jacob Blake being shot 7 times in front of his kids. We’ve woken up to centuries of racism and murder, and we fear what we will wake up to tomorrow.

Lessons Learned on Accountability Coaching

One of the biggest needs my clients have when they come to me is accountability. Something that can give them a little extra boost to say, ‘I have a workout today, I need to get it done.’ Sometimes you just don’t – for whatever reason, and that’s okay.
