Why can't I train like I used to...??
Being an Old Boy can be a testing time in your life. You still think young. It only seems like yesterday that you were playing sport, running up and down ladders, and working out regularly, but life has gotten very busy and priorities change.
What the hell happened………??
Being an Old Boy is a normal stage of life and comes with our growing families and careers. The problem for us though, lies in our mental state and the gap between what we think we can do and what we can do physically. Our mental ability starts to exceed our physically ability and what generally happens with Old Boys is that a few injuries start to occur, and we decide to either give it all away, sit on the couch and live on the stories of past glory, or we push through the injuries with dogged determination, get reinjured and push ahead again, until we get so frustrated……we give it all away, sit on the couch and live on the stories of past glory.
Don’t be the guy who the older he gets, the better he was. There is a way to keep training, you just need to be a little bit smarter in the way you train, and understand the impact of the following elements on your life –
- Ego
- Breaking Records
- Consistency
- Motivation
- Nutrition
We’ll get into each of these in the future Blogs.
