6 Things i don't do as a gym girl (13 years experience)

Transcript

6 Things i don't do as a gym girl (13 years experience) Number one is going to be I don't train six to seven days a week. I do three to four intentional strength days and then Pilates, walking, recovery. I feel like that's enough for me right now. Number two, I don't wash my hair after every workout. Um, dry shampoo is my best friend and I honestly wash my hair like once a week, once every 10 days because I could be a little bit better about that. Yeah, I probably could. Number three is I don't need to leave every workout completely destroyed. A good workout does not leave me questioning my entire life. I'm not leaving absolutely exhausted. Number four is I'm not washing my sports bra unless I actually got sweaty and it smells, okay? Is that a little gross? I don't know. Like if I just go on a walk or I go hit like a light upper body and I didn't get that sweaty, I'm not washing it. I'm setting it aside and I will rewear it for another day. Number five is I don't constantly change my exercises. They might not look exciting, but repeating them long enough to actually get stronger does matter if that fact works. Number six is I have absolutely no pair of leggings to decide whether they're wearable or not. Experience teaches you many things. I have had times where they're not wearable and I have times where they, in fact, are absolutely not wearable.
