saturday, weather was horrible, stressed, having a generally bad day. to top it off i left my rear car window open in the rain, all my stuff soaked! needed sugar so ate 2 pink iced doughnuts, the ones from greggs, soooooo gooood! neway needed to go gym as had no time friday. get there, its closed! booooo!

i could have said "F£$K IT!" ill start again on monday......not this lad!

got home, grabbed some canned tomato's out of the cupboard, after a warm up of running up and down the stairs and jumping jacks proceeded to "shadow box" with said canned fruit, 20 mins, sweating like a boss! oh crap! what about legs, cant go for a run, what do? i know! lay on the floor "bicycle kicks" 30 mins ooooosh! onto weights....dont own any? go old skool! 30 mins of situps, pushup and squats! smashed it!


TL;DR

dont let a bad day keep you from achieving your goals.
motivation, when lost can ALWAYS be found

YOU are awsome!!!

    Good for you! And shadowboxing with or without cans is no joke for a workout! I about died the first time I tried it. :drinker:
