Fitness Diary I The Long Run

Having a personal trainer is like having a personal cheerleader and I can relate to the individuals I used to watch on tv shows like The Big Loser- where you see trainers yell and scream at their clients in order to motivate them.

Vesna was nothing like that, she was a subtle motivator, she would slowly increase the weights I had to carry while doing squats and despite my constant complaints, she somehow manages to still get me to complete them.

It’s incredible because I find myself getting stronger- I’m not trying to say that after 5-6 sessions, I’ve suddenly came to the conclusion that I’m a beast, no, but I do see the gradual improvements. I feel healthier, stronger, and less tired than I usually am and that’s great considering my constant busy work schedule.

It’s like placing aside a pocket of time in the day where I can truly just focus on myself and be in the moment (be present, be mindful). It’s hard not to be present when my muscles are literally screaming out for help.

I’m super stoked to know that I’ve got a couple more sessions with Vesna before we part ways (or maybe not) because if I’ve learned anything, it’s that a lot of the time, we always find ways to get out of doing something- ‘I’m too busy, its too hard, I’ll do it later’, and I find that when someone else is holding you accountable to do what you put your mind to, you can astound yourself with the results that occur.

I’m more aware of the things my body is capable of doing and just how unhealthy and how unfit I was and still am, but it’s great to know that I’m working towards getting better at it.

Keep your eyes peeled for a special coverage on Vancity Buzz that I’m prepping for all you fitness fanatics out there and it’ll be one just in time for Christmas and the New Year!
