Maintenance Is An Acceptable Goal

NORMALIZE EXERCISING PURELY BECAUSE WE VALUE OUR HEALTH & FEEL BETTER WHEN MOVEMENT IS A REGULAR PART OF OUR ROUTINE

Life doesn’t always leave us the room to pursue major goals (whether it’s to lose 20lbs or to run a half marathon). Plus, when life gets overwhelming, the last thing we need is to engage in a fitness regimen that’s going to add to that stress... (of course abandoning our practice entirely has consequences too, but that’s a convo for another day). Our fitness routine, like life, is destined to change, and there’s no shame in that.

While I appreciate the value in setting goals that motivate us to continue showing up for ourselves, I’m also concerned that people become too fixated on chasing the next goal and lose sight of what truly matters: their health. Let’s normalize exercising purely because we value our health and feel better when movement is a regular part of our routine!
