Work and gym zombie

Hello. I haven’t linked up with the community lately and wanted to say hi. I am Brandi. My problem here is that all I seem to do is go to work and to the gym. My job requires so much enegry throughout the day. I’m a program director for a dementia care community and it is draining mentally, emotionally and physically. I find that it is easy to get to the gym, despite the cold weather, it’s gotten very hard to stay focused after work to get through my workout though. I drink coffee or c4 before my workout but it isn’t touching me lately. Is there anything else I could try to help? Any super duper power foods or anything? I love working out and all I want is to just focus and have the energy to stay there for an hour. What kinds of things do you tell yourself to stay alive during your workout?

    Sounds like you may be overtraining and/or not getting enough sleep. Take a break once in a while, like 1 week out of 4.
