Say you start a workout program. You do some cardio, you lift some weights and you feel good about that, but you end up wondering: Is this really working for me? How do I know if I’m doing the right thing to reach my goals?
Assessing your workouts isn’t always easy because there are so many ways to exercise. It would be nice if a bell rang or a green light came on every time we got it right, but it usually doesn’t happen that way. What often happens is, we try this and we try that and then we go back to the other thing and, maybe, we call in a trainer when we get frustrated.
Sometimes, we use questionable methods to assess our workouts. For example, one of my clients got upset with me at one point because, as she progressed, she wasn’t . She mistakenly thought that being sore all the time meant she was getting a good workout.
There are about your workouts that can help, but I want to hear your ideas. Whether you’re new to exercise or you’ve been around the block a few times, how do you assess your workouts? Do you wonder if you’re on the right track and does that leave you feeling frustrated or confused? Vote in this week’s poll and tell us how you evaluate your workouts.
