Patience is one of those boring virtues. It’s just not sexy. No one goes, “Whoa! Look at the patience on that guy! So hot!” And yet, under whatever it is we do find sexy in that guy, I am guessing there’s a fair amount of patience.
It takes patience to put in the work to get and stay healthy. No matter how much we try, there are going to be some boring or unpleasant parts of our workouts. (Which parts those are vary from person to person. One person’s treadmill torture is another person’s happy place.) And, when we start from the couch, we’re going to need to exercise our patience along with our bodies as we wait for the results of our actions to show.
The good news is that, much like the rest of our work in fitness, the patience we build is something we can use in the rest of our lives.
We can do this.
