Injury doesn’t mean giving up!

Ten days ago I injured my knee and had no choice but to stay still for the first five days, with limited mobility after that. I can’t get out for my daily, head-clearing walk. I can’t do my workouts and bask in the post-gym glow. I spent days 5 and 6 eating my emotions.

BUT….

My wonderful coach,

@Tyler Lo

has spent ALOT of time asking me a million questions about my mobility and doing a deep dive into what I can and can’t do. I’ve now got three completely new workouts to follow that I can 100% do without compromising my recovery, and without having to go to the gym. (I’m pretty much house-bound at the moment!)

SO…..

My own personal lesson I’m taking from this is that injury does not mean giving up, it’s about adjusting my understanding of how to stay healthy and taking care of my body. It’s not about needing a perfectly working body in order to achieve greatness. It’s not about having some fancy gym membership. It’s about making the most of the mobility you are lucky enough to have. It’s about sticking with the program through thick and thin. It’s about making the choice to keep showing up in any way that you can. And, for me, the most important thing is having a great Coach who is always ready to fight my corner and having this amazing community to keep me smiling 😊
