Embracing the Normalcy of Fitness Setbacks
Many people feel shame and embarrassment when they fall off the fitness wagon, but it's important to understand that irregular patterns are normal. Fitness, like life, is rarely linear. It's common for individuals to experience periods of consistency followed by extended breaks. While this may not be ideal, it's a normal part of the journey. Rather than letting shame deter you from returning, remember that you're not as far gone as you think. The knowledge and strategies you gained are still with you, and your body will likely respond well to resuming exercise and healthy habits. Embrace the normalcy of setbacks and be kind to yourself as you get back on track.
