Training

I was thinking about my training methods and reading Kerryn's blog Mind Power confirmed my basic philosophy! I sometimes have a program written out but mostly have in my mind what I'm going to do. The weights I use I remember, but if on any day I feel a bit weaker in that area, or feel the strain, I lower the weights and don't beat myself up about it. I really think that consistency is the most important part of long term fitness and no injury. I've had to had lay offs a few times and when I return I always lower my expectations and gradually build up again. I'm not in this to win weight lifting competitions! Also- if I really don't feel like going to the gym- I will go but do a lighter workout or something with more balance than weight. It's not hard to achieve and I've still maintained that contact with exercise ( too easy to say I won't go this time- and then never go again!!)
I won't ever do boot camps or anything competitive cos I know I'll injure myself. If in competition I'll just keep going even if I know it's not the best thing for me- duh!!
Anyway- it's my way and it seems to be working for me.
