FITNESS

BALANCED
Workouts

“There are
many ways
we can keep
our workouts
balanced,
both mentally
and physically.”

We have neared the end of the Canadian summer weather! I love the sun and sand as much
as I do the snow and cold winds. There is much
beauty and peace to be found in both ends of
the spectrum.
It is easy to get lost in the heaviness, boredom,
and at times repetitive actions of our fitness
regimes. Pushups, Squats, Planks, Chaturangas,
Lunges, T-Planks, Crow. I mean really, how many
burpees can you do mechanically before you
lose your mind? Thoughts can take over the benefits, and even enjoyment, of these movements if
we get stuck in our head too much.
