Motivation Monday: Beat a Bad Weekend

Monday is the easiest day of the week to fall into self-criticism. When we’ve had a “bad weekend”, it becomes simple to believe that we’ve ruined all of our progress when it comes to eating healthy & getting enough exercise because of the decisions we made over the weekend. One thing that I heard from Jill Coleman years ago that has stuck with me is that a single day, week, or even month will not break or make a physique for the long-term. Does eating healthy and exercising for a few days straight change your body? It works the same way in the other direction. Having a few off days will not jeopardize all of your hard work, so be kind to yourself! It’s a brand new week and opportunity to start fresh! It doesn’t have to be a domino effect and you CAN turn it around. Here are two new workout challenges to get you back on track! - Nora
