Is your Body your Boss?

Is your Body your Boss?

Maybe all of us have started an exercise program at one or other time of our life. We understand the importance of it, and how it can give us quality of life. And yet, some or other time we give up on it. Is there some secret power hidden in our bodies that is influencing us in some or other way? I am a former gym owner, qualified Physical Educationist, have more than 5 decades experience of training, and yet it remains so difficult to keep going.

@sol_cee Even lazy people can manage the 100 Second Miracle Shape Up program which I have developed. You can do it while your bathtub is filling up.

First, welcome to the land of mylotting. To me it is all a matter of willpower.

I agree, but do you mean using willpower in the sense of forcing yourself to read? Thanks for the welcoming greeting, but I nevertheless feel very green in this land.

@Eitchy Oops Marlina, I thought you have been commenting on will power needed to write on myLot? Yes willpower is very important, but many of us have preciously little of that and we need to develop every trick in the book just to keep going.

The less you train the better!
Indeed Arm, we all need to do some form of movement, or we will completely deteriorate eventually. It has become a great help to me that I can do the 100 Second Super shape up program. It can be done while my bathtub is busy filling up, and that way is not a major effort to work out.

Interesting! Do you mean that at some time of our lives our body "gives up"?

Why don't you get up to train when you wake up?
A good question Marguicha. No I mean that we mainly seem to start, and then give up later because of the feelings of resistance we experience in our bodies, when it is time to go and train.How can this resistance be overcome so that we can make a success of our keep fit and shaping up programs?

I feel that every time you feel to be settling into a routine, some impediment or the other causes you to lose the rhythm. I guess fitness discipline needs a very static routine and for those with peripatetic lifestyles, it can get really difficult to maintain the regimen.
