resolute |ˈrezəˌloōt; -lət|adjectiveadmirably purposeful, determined, and unwavering
This describes many people at the gym. Carmen comes to mind. She’s lives in Northridge and makes the a God-awful commute to the gym several times a week, often going to rugby practice afterward. She is undeniably fierce.
We could all be a little more purposeful, determined, and unwavering. Some of us could be a little less. What I mean is that sometimes we need to take it easy and listen to our bodies. I know I say this a lot. We want to take our bodies to it’s limits but we don’t want to get hurt or burnout. So don’t think going lighter or a bit slower (for the sake of perfecting technique or avoiding injury ) is something to look down on. It’s necessary sometimes. So take that same resolve and give your body what it needs, even if it’s a night off or lighter weight.
Conversely, if you find yourself often doing the workouts as RX’ed or repeatedly doing the same weights for certain exercises, kick it up. Throw a wrench in the engine and add some weight to the bar, throw in the weight vest. Whatever. Just do something that will leave you once again (and your body) guessing.
