Who are you influencing?
As a business owner and Mum to 2 gorgeous girls “training guilt” is real. Fitting training in is hard, add the pressure of menopause and the need to lift heavy the struggle is even more real!
I am incredibly fortunate that my job and my training is very aligned, but when do you fit it in as a busy working Mum when you’re feeling the parental pull? Consistency is key and our children do adapt to our routines and leading by example is important as you never know when you influence change. It’s not always by what you say it’s by what you do.
I have been banging on like a boring Mum about how exercise influences mood, with the boost in happy hormones how much better we feel and finally my 15yo joined me yesterday when I went to had my PT session , she has started her C25 programme….”Mum you’re right, I do feel so much happier now”….”bet you didn’t feel like that when you were doing it?!….”No it was hard, but you’re right, I feel good now!”
Make time to show why it matters. I am always explaining why I run, why it’s important, why I lift weights, what happens when I do - you never know what they’re seeing and learning just by your actions.
