It's not about what you CAN'T do.....

"You've been consistently working out for over three years and you can't even do a pull-up?"

This question was asked as though my workouts are not working.

No.  I cannot do a pull-up.

But I CAN do push-ups on my toes....which I could not do when I started.

And I CAN do squats and lunges....which I had trouble with, due to my knees, when I first started.

And I CAN make it through a cardio workout without stopping a bazzillion times to not die....which I could not do when I started.

And I CAN actually use my 10s, 15s and 20s when doing upper body workouts....instead of my 2s, 4s and 5s!

We all have things we can't do.  But sometimes we have to remind ourselves of the progress we HAVE made.

Maybe our list of things we can't do is pretty long.....but that shouldn't stop us from working on them.

So, maybe I can't do a pull-up....yet.  But I'm not doing this to be able to do one.  I get up in the morning to workout in order to stay healthy and become stronger.

Why do YOU workout?
