Good morning soulmate, friends, buddy's and readers,
Yesterday i had a good conversation with my friend at the gym who happens to be personal trainer. He told me i should think about "goal" not in the weight-loss area, but in the exercise area... I at first had no idea what he was talking about, but we talked some further and i started to see what he meant. Every day i go to the gym, i try to alternate exercises as much as possible to give certain musclegroups a break and to make it mentally challenging to me... But i pump myself up, i get my bag and i go, no questions asked, no resasons given. At the gym i give it my ALL don't be mistaking. There is not a person at the gym who will not attest to that! But there is no GOAL, there is just a vague "lets get better"...
So i been thinking about Goals, there are two types of goals: life-targets and subgoals... I can think of plenty of subtargets, like my first subtarget is to do one chin-up. A goal i had already reached but am now expanding on is to do one true pushup, i can now do 6... goal is to do 10.
But what is my life-target? What CAN be my life target? what is an reasonable, understandable, measurable, behavioral, attainable GOAL for me?
run 10 km, no problem, is not challenging enough, walk 30 km done that, too easy... and in both cases i'm afraid that my f0ot will start to hurt again after long exposure to straining exercises on it... So cycle for 100km, or a special tour like my father did, cycle to italy? i am afraid i find that to be too boring, after one hour on a bike i had ebough for a week ;) Make a special tour with my horse? done that, fantastic, but that is more exercise for the horse, not so much for me... hike to a very high mountain? challenging, but i have no bush-skills at all, and i don't recon i can get bear grills to come with me, and without a good guide it would be unwise to say the least :)
so what is left? I like lifting and pumping weights, so is my life goal, just to stretch my subgoals? any idea's anyone?
