Just tryna have the hamstring separation without the pressure to be a certain version of fit😤
I used to struggle a lot with being okay with missing the gym or not lifting weights 5-6 days a week.
I felt like working out only 3-4 days a week didn’t align with the version of myself that I felt I had to be on social media.
& that is a diff type of struggle. The struggle of putting pressure on yourself to be some specific version of yourself for others, and not being true to yourself.
Sure, how many times I lift a week is truly a trivial problem. But it goes beyond that.
How many times have you felt pressure to perform or be something you’re not so you don’t disappoint those around you? Or so you don’t feel like an imposter?
Happens to us all.
Realizing that I can still be a “fitness girl” while working out less was hard. It was hard because I didn’t associate myself beyond anything other than fitness.
So I came to the realization that there is more to me than this one thing, and I have to accept that about myself before others could too.
This can be said for anyone who struggles with a similar situation or imposter syndrome.
You can be a fit person without having the craziest physique or workout schedule.
You can love doing something without it having to be the only thing that is important about you.
Who you are as a whole is what makes you important, not just the simple things you may or may not do.
Remember that next time you’re feeling off🫶🏼
love you guys😚
