He told me ‘the people that you perceive as the ones that are in shape have more respect for you than anything’. He went on to say that they were working HARD to be in that position but more importantly they knew how hard you were working. He said ‘they know how it feels for them to work out with the extra ‘winter pounds’ so they actually feel nothing but respect for you because they know that you may be going slower and not as hard...but you are working just as hard if not harder than they are!<br /><br />Your post just reminded me of those comments!MaryFranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02507347923712459651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-36174474510180584992019-03-06T10:33:38.162-06:002019-03-06T10:33:38.162-06:00WTG on the burpees!!!

You might not be doing the same things, but your perceived level of exertion may be, and that's what matters - that you are working out at the right intensity for your body! :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03201592937889358953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-61857158861408135852019-03-06T08:52:03.157-06:002019-03-06T08:52:03.157-06:00Its good to hear that the trainers work out as har...Its good to hear that the trainers work out as hard as you guys.

She works hard at it, tho because I see her posts on IG. I guess that's why they're the coaches and we're the students, right/Wendy at Taking the Long Way Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09934786207724059919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-91735021491860116802019-03-06T06:35:05.637-06:002019-03-06T06:35:05.637-06:00I'm convinced burpees are the devil's own ...I'm convinced burpees are the devil's own tool. <br /><br />It's timely that you wrote about this because just yesterday as I was doing a bootcamp and huffing and puffing and trying to decide if I should modify one move in particular, I had the thought wondering if it ever gets any easier. I mean,"they" say that if you keep at it, it gets easier but I'm beginning to think "they" are liar liar pants on fire people.<br /><br />Big ups to you for keeping at it. One thing I know we agree on is we are not like the previous generations 50-something year olds so good for us.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12308631304554235792noreply@blogger.com
