🏐🏀🥎As a former 3 - Sport High School Athlete and a year around competitive Collegiate Ultimate Frisbee player, fitness was basically built into my lifestyle. 🥏
After graduating college, my body started to feel different, as I didn't have a specific sport to keep me in shape all year long.
🇯🇲 About 1.5years after my college graduation, I moved to a remote location in Jamaica that didn't quite have internet just yet.
No sports, no internet...how was I going to keep my body from bloating, losing bone density, starting to tighten up, etc..? I mean.. my daily bike rides to and from the school I taught at could only get me so far. I needed more fitness.
✈️Over the next few years I would do different workout videos of Shaun T and Jillian Michaels. I kept moving around from state to state, working on cruise ships, and moving literally across the entire world to China.
Throughout these times, it was difficult to keep a specific gym/workout routine. Sometimes I was "on" and sometimes it would be months between workouts. 😫
☯️The point of this story: I know what it's like to be a former athlete (knowing what my body used to be able to do), and have my body operate differently now that I'm in my mid 30s.
Countless times I've had to "get back into the game," with each time my body being different than it was before. I'm not in my 20's anymore and my body definitely reminds me of that daily.
🤙 But I can still workout, build muscle, and feel good in my ever changing body/hormones.
