Russian layback💘

To be honest the last week few weeks training has felt so hard. What is especially weird is that there is no obvious reasons for it. But in the spirit of not showing just highlights here I wanted to talk a bit about this. I feel like I have drag myself to practice. When I am there I feel irritated and unhappy with the (lack of) progress. It's like everything I do feels heavy. I tried to take it easy and not train for a few days. I think it helped a little with the fatigue in the body, but my mind just keeps telling me I'm not good enough and I shouldn't have skipped my planned trainings. Maybe my training load is too high at the moment🤷🏻‍♀️

Anyhow, these days are part of life and things will turn around again. For now I try to keep my long term goals in mind. I will join a class for fun instead of only working on my routine. And hope the spark will return soon✨

How do you deal with these periods?

When training feels heavy and difficult, I check nutrition and fatigue first ^^ and I try to spend time enjoying easier exercise - be it flow on the pole, floor work, simple moves; or a different discipline, like yoga. Hang in there and remember to be kind to your body 🩷
For sure! That's a good one. I think my nutrition is on point at the moment. But my sleep has been a bit off. That might not help the case. I will enjoy a flow based class later this week to just do something for fun and a bit lower intensity. Thank you for your kind words😊
