Festina lente


I am not good at taking my time.  Most often, I want to get as much done in as little time as possible.  When it comes to working out, this is useful, but only to a point.

Some things have to take time.  Allowing the body’s energy systems to reboot between sets makes each set better.  Giving the muscles enough time to relax into a stretch creates more flexibility.  Those same muscles really do need a recovery day between weight workouts to rebuild themselves stronger than before.


Yes, let’s be efficient.  But sometimes we have to make haste slowly.
