This conversations is popping up a lot this week in training sessions…
As the weather gets nicer
BBQs
Sporting events
more social stuff
…and for some of you, that also means more alcohol.
“I’m only drinking on weekends”
(but it’s now every weekend + Fridays)
“I don’t drink that much”
(but progress has completely stalled)
“I’ve been so good during the week”
(weekend says otherwise)
“I just feel off lately”
(low energy, poor sleep, more cravings…)
I’m not here to tell you not to drink, that is a very personal choice.
But I am here to say:
this is one of the most common things quietly slowing people down right now.
Not ruining progress…
just dragging it out.
If your goals matter:
start paying attention to the patterns.
