Description

Okay, so let's talk about those days. You know the ones. Your workout gear is giving you the side-eye and the couch is a tractor beam, pulling you over to it.

Uh-huh. Been there more times than I can count.

Well, I have a psychological hack for just that, and on this short walk 'll tell you how I trick myself into doing something I don’t feel like doing. Works like a charm.

During this 10-minute walking mini-workout we chat about:

  • The "gym bag trick" I've been using for years to squeeze in exercise when I don’t want to.
  • Why just "showing up" is more important than having the "perfect" workout.
  • The story of how a trip to Costco for new tires turned into a surprise walking workout."

Seriously, if you've ever fought with your couch and lost, this walk is for you.

P.S. You will hear a bell halfway. If you're out, that's your cue to head back.
