I have written many times about Outsourcing motivation Lately though I’ve been the one pushing us to do strength training. I enjoy it and find it easy to bring into my day.
Michel , on the other hand, is great at getting his cycling in but struggles to stick with strength training.
I was asking him if it was ok to write about his dislike. He said “I know it’s important but it’s not dislike, I really fucking hate it.”
Wow. That surprised me. So we have made the strength workouts some together time.
We are at 45 minute full body classes plus a warm up and stretch. We modify as needed. It feels good to have company and the time flies.
It’s nice to be able to support Michel’s goals. A bit of reciprocity on motivation feels good.
We pick classes where the instructor is a bit silly. Laughing helps.
I’ve also snuck in a few dance cardio warm ups to mess with his Strava feed. Hehehehe
