Iâm loving the mornings!!
January is almost coming to an end and I am still checking my boxes. Beating PROcrastination is rewarding. The last two weeks I have been working on strengthening the adductors and my buns (the latest Iâd love to turn into steel ;-)). I am happy to already see some changes in how I approach the programme and even the bar.
Sundayâs I take the time out for my weekly review on paper and digital. The biggest ‘ahaah-thing’ I can say isâŚ..Iâm loving the mornings. Being on the go from 6.30 oâclock is challenging and once you get the hang of it the nicest flow to be in. Seeing the sun come up and noticing that Iâve already indulged some ME-time and brace myself for the tasks that are there for me to take on or even tackle. It gives me more time and focus to enjoy the things I do in my spare time.
This âcheck inâ is quick so there will be more to tell and show next week.
Let me check whatâs on my âI will be doingâ list for the coming week!!
How do you prepare yourself for the week and keep your focus? I am curious to know how this time of the year and season is treating you and what you are putting in to it.
Untill we meet again.

Recover & Recharge
Yes, we made it to another week this new year. This week the focus was on recovery. While typing this a saying I once heard goes through my head: Recovery is not for people who need it, itâs for people who want it. And itâs never too late to join the party.
For me this also raises the question: but what does recovery actually means? Is that;
-
-
- taking rest; doing nothing;Â
- still being active but with another intensity and intention on the outcome? ;
- fill in the blanks yourself ****
-
Whatever recovery means for you; I find it important to make the time for it and be consistent in applying this in my active lifestyle. The way you deal with muscle aches, preventing injuries (big and small), lowering your stress levels..âŚit’s all important and will benefit you in the long run if you have a plan by hand.
This week celebrating the existence of recovery meant treating myself to an acupuncture session to release the soreness and stiffness in my legs. And going back to the gym (since they reopened last friday here in the Netherland). I found myself doing way overdue assistive work. And I can honestly sayâŚ.I enjoyed it. Not because of the fact I wasnât moving loads and loads of KGâs. Mostly because my focus was solemnly on strengthening overlooked and underdeveloped parts in my body in addition to my overall FIT_ness!
Iâm curious to hear what your recovery(plan) looks like.
Feel free to share
Untill we meet again.
âXOXOâ
