I hit a major milestone. I flew home last weekend and stayed for 5 days. Usually this means I workout less, eat terrible, and fall off the wagon.

This time I worked out every single day. No matter what I worked out. I worked out at 4 different gyms for free using a combo of day passes. Don't let anything stop you from taking the small steps needed to get to your big goals.

I have a rest day scheduled for Saturday. I've earned it.

    Same. I've gotten to a point where it's hard to sleep at night because I'm so excited to get up and workout. I have to calm down tho because rest is key.

    Don't hope. Make it happen. Map out the obstacles and make a plan. I was visiting my kids last week and I was up at 3 am working out so I could still get them ready for school. I found 24 hour gyms. Used multiple gyms that were close to their school so I could still pick upon time. You name it. You can do this.

    Or kill two birds with one stone....find a way to make playing with them your active time. You got this.
