WWAD (What would Alex do)

First I have been pretty laid back with my workouts.  Lots going on at home.   Truck broke, twins getting tonsils removed, add dance for Hannah, Gymnastics for Avery and everyday life stuff.  Before you know it the workout is on the back burner.  Well I have made it to the Gym two days in a row.  That is pretty exciting.  I am back on track.  I have my first real workout with my new trainer next Monday.  I meet with him last week.  It will be like starting over.  He was unable to locate the file of my workouts with Alex. (my copies are in the broken truck at the shop).  New workout routines, new challenges.   Speaking of new workout,  I discovered a new kettle bell workout online.  I have been doing Kettle bell crawl and carry.  






So I bet you are all wondering why this posting is titled WWAD.  Usually when I workout by myself.  I come up with excuses for not wanting to keep pushing.  If I have to do 1 minute, I will tell myself it's OK I did 45 seconds.  If I get tired I tell myself it's OK to do 2 sets instead of 3 sets.  Well today While I was workout, I was trying to think of a reason not to keep pushing.  As I was on my hands and knees convincing myself  to do my next set of crawls.  I thought WWAD (what would Alex do).  He would kick my butt. He would not put up with me coming up with excuses.   So I pushed through,  finished my final set.   So when I want to quit I will remember WWAD.
