What I Believe About... Perfection

Hi There

Welcome to the #BeliefSeries! This is where I share my core beliefs about certain topics. You are welcome to comment and leave a topic to be discussed. The #Belief Series  features Tuesdays and Thursday! Today's topic...Perfection  

 I believe "Perfection" lies in the imperfections. We cannot know what "perfect" is if we have not been or seen or experienced what imperfect is... Make sense? I also believe to be perfect you need to have been broken or still be. You cannnot be perfect and not have had perfect experiences of everything. I also believe it is an illusion. It is and always will be unattainable and unrealistic. What makes us as humans unique is our imperfections. I also believe that media makes us believe there is a "perfect" but this is not true all it does is hide the imperfections, which causes us to to the same.We need to learn to love our imperfections, as humans and as individuals. 

 We do not have to be "perfect". We just need to be who we are. We do not have to look like what media tells us, we should just strive to be the best version of ourselves this includes our overall health.

Getting Personal... Training Hard

Image
Hi There I am sorry for disappearing... This last week was hectic. It reminded me of my humanity... I am going to get personal; but don't get use to it. This is not a "Dear Diary" blog. But I think it might help with what this blogging adventure of mine is about; which is to encourage and change our mindset on movement. I am not what you would call an typical athlete. In fact my body build and background does not "fit" the usual attributes of an athlete. That said, I love running. I do cross country competitively, but I compete only against myself. This last few weeks I trained really hard and I got selected for my Province. I ran in my Provincial clothes  and I have never been so proud to wear the Daisy of AGN. I did not expect to get selected.  It made me think that we think we can not do something, but that we are actually capable. We just need to train. Everything comes with training. We train our kids how to be polite and eat ect. We train our brains

Do not... I repeat... DO NOT get overwhelmed!!

Hi There  This time of the year we try and get our "lives" in order and set up goals for ourselves. Sometimes we are even excited about all these challenges!! Other times we don't know where to start. This is how it usually goes...  You have never ran a KM, now you need to lose some weight...So you are going to run 5 km every morning...😲😵😨 You die trying and the next hour or day you are so stiff you can not function as a human being and no human likes torture let alone torturing themselves, so you stop and hate exercise... and thinks it does not work! Running can be substituted with any type of exercise activity...FYI  Sorry but that is WRONG and NO excuse. YOU did it WRONG!!! There is a science behind movement. Thus a process! As with EVERYTHING in life!!!! Do not get overwhelmed and push to hard! Start small and build on your successes!! Start with walking 15 min a day and build on it weekly... You might find that you enjoy it!!!  Again small steps...

Do I need a Personal Trainer?

Image
Hi There  This is an awesome question! But the answer is tricky. As a Sport Scientist I do take on Personal Training clients. I approach them the same as I would any athlete, just with other goals (Remember the goal blog post? The difference is the goal; the why you are doing it).  Many of my Personal Training clients just need me to get them started. They don't need me to per se tell them what to do, but they need me to motivate, check on correct movement, making sure the body isn't taking short cuts etc. That is why I am there with them every session, not necessarily because they can not do it without me. In fact m y goal with ALL my clients is to educate them so that they don't need me to keep moving and reaching their goals. They know how to move safely and correctly.   This being said; I think if you have no movement experience then defiantly start with a personal trainer. If you are knowledgeable about the body and how it moves ,responds to movement and the mind
