Twas the first day of December, pumpkin pie still in the fridge The stomach was grumbling, but the mind still afraid The six pack was close still trying to appear In hopes of a sighting before the new year.
The children were full of sugar and carbs While the parents dreamed, of an ice cream with sprinkles and a beer Mom sneaking Dutch Bros, and Dad sneaking Snickers All was fine, yet desires felt sinful!
When out on the socials the influencers created We scrolled through the feed to see who was better Away to the gym we flew like a flash Only to realize we can’t keep up with photoshopped models.
The gym lighting glow on our biceps and glutes gave hope of a sighting of abs soon near When my eyes caught a glance of not one But two and a half abs have appeared!
Once Obese and unhealthy, now fit and trim I knew in that moment that one splurge would not kill More strength & more power come every day Once foe, now friend the mirror became!
First biceps and triceps, then hamstrings and quads One ab, then two, come on how about 4!? To the floor for a plank, then a bridge and some sit ups Feel the fat melt away & away & away!!
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! As we start back to work and get closer to Christmas, I know we all have a lot on our minds. This can be a stressful time for many people. Money, health, relationships, and family can all cause different emotions in us. Don’t forget to take a little time for yourself.
Don’t be afraid to have some Christmas cookies at a party. Enjoy a cocktail with your spouse at the end of a long week. We all need to unwind every once and a while. Just remember to get back on track. Don’t go on a week-long drinking spree. You don’t have to try every desert at every single party. Enjoy yourself, then get back on track.
Time during the holiday season is hard to find. There is shopping to do, parties to attend, children’s concerts to attend, etc. There is every excuse possible to skip going to the gym this December. Find a way to stay disciplined. Find a way to push yourself. Find a way to step inside the gym and get a workout. Find a workout program that you can follow along with at home. Just find a way to have some healthy time for yourself.

If the past two years of a seemingly never-ending pandemic, racial justice protests, and political divisiveness have taught me anything, it’s that we live with…
