We know that some days it’s easy to feel a little unmotivated to move. This week is all about pushing through the resistance and exercising just for fun. What are some activities that you enjoy just for fun? Or when was the last time you did something just for fun? This week, approach each day of movement with a sense of fun and curiosity. Don’t worry about doing every exercise perfectly. Release any pressure you may put on yourself and simply focus on having a good time with it.
