Why I Stopped Doing Workout Warmups

Why I Stopped Doing Workout Warmups

by Jessie Mundell | Jul 26, 2017 | Blog

I haven’t warmed-up for 99% of the workouts I’ve done in the last 2 years. Seriously. It’s a rare occurrence if I do any warming up at all before getting into my workout. *GASP* I KNOW I KNOW. We, the fitness industry, tell you that’s the most...

✨ For the days when everything feels heavy: Some

✨ For the days when everything feels heavy:
Sometimes movement is the last thing on your mind. And friend, let me be clear: your worth has absolutely nothing to do with your workout streak or how much you move your body.

But I’ve witnessed this quiet magic hundreds of times: gentle movement has this way of reminding us of the strength we’ve had all along. Not because we need fixing, but because our bodies carry so much wisdom.

Whatever feels good for YOU today - that’s perfect. Whether it’s a stretch, a walk, or simply taking three deep breaths.

💭 Drop a ❤️ if you’re going to give yourself permission to move YOUR way today.

🏋️‍♀️ How To Work Out With Tiny Humans:

🏋️‍♀️ How To Work Out With Tiny Humans: A Survival Guide

Let's be honest - exercising with kids around is like trying to meditate in a circus. And sometimes, that's just how life looks right now! 🎪

Here's your permission slip to do it imperfectly:

🌟 Welcome interruptions. Those toddler "assists" count as bonus reps!

🌟 Split your workout into bite-sized pieces - 5 minutes here, 10 minutes there

🌟 Skip the outfit change. Leggings from yesterday? Perfect. No shoes? Even better.

🌟 Keep equipment visible and ready (watch how fast they'll want to "help" 😅)

🌟 Yes, screen time and snacks can be workout allies. Zero guilt.

🌟 Celebrate what's possible today, not what you think "should" happen

🌟 Remember: Some movement > no movement. You're doing amazing.

🌟 Ask for support when you can. It takes a village!
