When you are in the midst of mental block try to do the following:

*Review your workout programme. Are you overtraining?
*Speak about your mental roadblock. 
*Practice patience, diligence in all activities not just in your workout.
*Focus on right breathing and awareness of correct exercise form. *Participate in a group class.
* Plan in advance the workout and duration.
* Remember to eat your pre and post workout meals.
*Take an extra day off from the gym. Focus on nutrition.

Training is not all physical. It requires preparation and a daily resolve to continue and give 100%.

Try the following when you sense the mind weighing you down.

*Revisit the basic, such as bodyweight exercises:
*Power naps! Daily 10-30 minutes of recharging.
*Drink water throughout the day.
*Ask a friend to join you.
*Take a group class.
*Be grateful for your current health.

If you see it, you can achieve it! When your body is physically changing from your hard work in the gym the mind needs to readjust too. Every workout you do is a stepping stone. Every time you show up for life it is an achievement.

Mental roadblocks are like castles made of sand. Eventually, they will fall into the sea of your perseverance. Ask for help and emember you are not alone.

Be well and stay ACTIVE!!
