How important is it to acknowledge that your fitness journey will be full of ups and downs and to come from a place of self-care, as discussed in episode 238 of the podcast "Movement Expert Kate Galliet on How to Prevent Your Next Big Injury" and in the clip "Personalized Body Care," in relation to the episode "Get Mentally TOUGH, Achieve Your Goals and Do The IMPOSSIBLE By Doing THIS TRICK | James Lawrence" and the clip "Embracing Uncertainty"?
I have a question about the episode How To Tell If You're Training Hard Enough and the clip Training vs. Working Out. I am a 25-year-old retired college hockey player who used to have a sports-specific workout throughout my youth and early 20s. It has been 3 years, going on 4, since I graduated from college, and I have hit a gym plateau. I have been using the gym to manage my anxious, high-energy feelings but have lost a sense of what I am capable of. I feel burnt out and lack an understanding of how much my body should endure in the gym. I am curious about how to get my body back to where I am confident I can perform certain lifts without the long-term aches and pains that tend to follow today.
How can I introduce myself to a class succinctly while still being impactful? I've been coaching at this gym for two years, but I started coaching about ten years ago. I've tried various training modalities and experienced both falling off the "wagon" and pushing myself to intense workouts six days a week with two-a-day sessions. I've also dealt with overtraining injuries and made a long recovery back. What I've learned over that time is that treating resistance training and exercise as a practice and a skill rather than a way to beat yourself up and burn calories is the most successful approach.
