M5:D29 (D437) More Birthday Wishes

January 5, 2009 By Michael Mahony, ISSA CPT Leave a Comment

  

What's on my mind today?

Today was my youngest daughter’s 7th birthday.  It taught me alot about youthful excitement and how much fun it can be to be swept away in the moment.

Alyssa decided that she wanted to go to Adventure City, an amusement park aimed at very young children (younger than 10 years old).  We set out to Adventure City at Noon.  As we walked into the place I could see the excited look on her face.  She immediately ran to the carousel and wanted to ride.  I joined her and my youngest child, Mitchell, for a carousel ride.  They insisted that I get on the horse as well, so I did.  We went from ride to ride like this.  Each time she wanted me to join her and each time I did.  The excitement was infectious as we walked through the small park.

Alyssa had a day that she will remember for a long time.  She went on her first roller coaster, a very small, geared for children, coaster that was actually alot of fun to ride.  I enjoyed experiencing that with her. 

It made me wonder why we can’t maintain this type of excitement for our own fitness programs.  We start out this way, but it eventually fades if you let it.  What can be done to keep the excitement?  I think the answer to that question lies in the workouts you do.  Change them up frequently enough and you won’t get bored.  Continue to show progression and you will be excited at your own progress. 

Due to the birthday festivities taking up the entire wonderful day, no video podcast this week.

Happy Birthday, Alyssa, your daddy loves you very much!
