π€ After months of inflammation and achy joints, I finally felt well enough to strength train again β and Iβm so excited! π¬ ππ»ββοΈ The only βproblemβ? Since leaving my local CrossFit gym last year, I havenβt joined anywhere new. And honestlyβ¦ thatβs okay, because driving has always been my biggest obstacle to working out. π€Έπ» Luckily, CrossFit has a free app with a workout of the day plus modification options. That means I can grab whatever dumbbells I have, pull up a structured workout, and just start. (And if youβve got an iPhone, Apple Fitness is a solid option too!) π¦πΌ Working out at home also makes it easy to include my son β he βhelps me count,β copies my warm-up moves, and we take little dance/play breaks when I need a minute to catch my breath. For months, itβs been easy to default to βIβm too tiredβ or βIβm in too much pain.β But when I move, the energy and endorphins that hit me during and after a workout feel like nothing else π€© The biggest reminder for me wasnβt motivation β it was removing friction. I donβt need the perfect plan, the perfect gym, or a big time block. I just need something I can start right where I am: at home, with what I have, at the level my body can handle today. Because when exercise is simple, it becomes doableβ¦ and when itβs doable, it becomes consistent. β€οΈ
