After being out of pocket and out of training for a week it’s really hard to get back into the groove.
I’m like you, once I fall off of my nutrition and training, I struggle to dial it back in. Why? Because, like you, I’m human.
Humans fall victim to lack of momentum. You see once things get going, it’s very easy to keep them going, but once things fall off, it’s very hard to get things going again.
Why? Because, momentum helps keep things in motion. Rather then having to overcome all the forces that are keeping things stationary when you’re trying to get something started, keeping things moving is much much easier.
The key is to set yourself up for success and to keep the momentum going. Take advantage of momentum in every thing you do. Don’t let yourself fall off for too long to where it’s hard to get going again, and if you do fall off, do everything you can to get yourself going again.
How can you use momentum to keep you moving in the right direction?
