Welcome!
This is my first attempt to educate those who us as fitness professionals, aspire to help achieve their personal fitness, performance, and optimal wellness goals!
As a new dad...16 months to be exact, at first I thought 'hey this aint so bad...ill be able to keep my fitness level up, manage work, fatherhood, being a husband, a homeowner, etc, etc. Well - it takes a lot of energy as you all know.
Workouts would be become shorter and fewer between. I found myself in what all fitness professionals call "brick and no morter". I've certainly got the tools and knowledge....but its just not sticking together! I reached out to new training tools (TRX, RIP Trainers, CrossFit, etc.) and it all came down to, well, "just do it".
Okay, okay, today is the day. Or is it? Well great...that week was solid. The next...ehh, not so much. Consistency is the key - if you dont do your homework, you'll just keep falling behind, right? Just like high school physics. By the way...that was one class I actually did fail. But look at me now! haha.
Anyways, resorting back to the basics, its accountability. So this is my challenge to myself and all of you - join me in The Fight against Daddy Syndrome!
What is "Daddy Syndrome"? Well, its a little phrase or analogy I use as an excuse to why my fitness level has gone down. Is it horrible, nah - but not where I want it to be :)
Daddy Syndrome is by my definition; the inability to maintain focus on ones wellness by variables through being a father, husband, and professional.
If this sounds familiar to you - then I personally invite you to follow this blog, contribute everything and anything you want to help yourself visualize what you do to help-yourself and others. I look forward to working and sharing with you in this Fight for Fitness!
Best in training,
Joe
