In The Zone!

I had two good workouts yesterday and both were what I would call "In the Zone".

The best I can explain was that neither workout required a great deal of thought and my mind was clear of interruption. Almost like what meditation should probably feel like.

I find it interesting that when we workout that we need all these distractions to get through it all. Everyone has headphones on when they are running or at the gym people have TV's on when they are doing their cardio or watching while they are in the weight room.

Now, I really like a good sound track sometimes but I don't want to be distracted from my workouts, I want to feel them and enjoy them. And honestly, for me, I don't want any distractions when I am lifting weights.

I have made an effort, especially when I am outside to feel every step and listen to my body rather than try to use a distraction to get me through it.

Again, I have nothing against a good soundtrack to pump me up, I just like feeling every rep, every stroke of the bike and every step I take.

Health and Happiness!
