. . . if you run first thing in the morning, you have that wonderful feeling of having accomplished something important at the start of your day. @wa.tu.ra #morningrun #morningroutine #morningview #bejikukusanloop #wednesdayvibes #laritipistipis #tetapbergerak #runforinstagram #runforhealth #runforyourlife #elephanTalk #gajahilosophy #staysafeandhealthy (at Rumah Bali - Dewa's Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTj_LhzlFbM/?utm_medium=tumblr

. . . a hallmark of building consistency in my training is to make my workouts feel easy most of the time. performance coach suggests the 80/20 rule when it comes to intensity: ≥ 80% of our training should be easy (ie. running at a conversation pace) and 20% challenging (ie. training close to V̇O₂ max, >80% max HR). if our workouts are too hard too often, burnout is inevitable. when we pull too much from our willpower reserves, self discipline may seize altogether. we’ll no longer be able to extract joy from our training and instead, start to dread them. the probability of more frequent bouts of procrastination, inconsistency, and skipped workouts will skyrocket. however, on the inverse, if we only train easy, boredom and lack of motivation will likely ensue—our workouts can feel monotonous. so while training easy most of the time is sound advice, i believe to build sustainable fitness over the long-term, there needs to be a balance of both. so the key to consistency i believe, is finding an equilibrium: if we incorporate 1-2 hard days/week, the “easier” (even if it still isn’t that easy) feels more congenial—we garner more appreciation and gratitude for our training + learn to love our workouts that much more. . @wa.tu.ra . #jogging #slowrunning #bejikukusanloop #terusbergerak #slowrunner #morningrunner #morningrun #trackandfield #runtoinspire #run #gorun #runfast #athletes #trackworkout #athletics #speedtraining #trainhard #speedandagility #stayfit #exercise #runners #instarunners #runhappy #runplanet #runningterritory #runnersofinstagram #runnerslife #elephanTalk #gajahilosophy (at Rumah Bali - Dewa's Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTBMordBni2/?utm_medium=tumblr
