Slumps Are Part of the Game

Baseball players have slumps and so do people trying to get the body of their dreams.  Sometimes the process might not seem fun anymore or the results seem to be stuck at a stand still.  Maybe you go on a week vacation and you end up being less than healthy about your choices.

The best advice I ever heard when I was in a slump was, “just keep swinging the bat and they’ll start to fall.”  I think that’s good advice for exercising too.  Just keep working hard at it and the results will come.

Taking a week or two off isn’t going to destroy months and months of hard work.  Sometimes going through a little bit of a tough streak gives you more momentum once you break out of it as well as new focus and excitement.

persistence will pay off

I’ve had my share of ups and downs in my baseball career.  I’m sure you’ve had ups and downs during your mission to get a better body.  The only thing that will get you through those down times is persistence.  There’s no miracle, quick-fix answer, unfortunately.  It just takes a little bit of hard work.  Every day is a new day to start or get closer to your dreams.  Or as the famous pitcher Bob Feller once said, “Every day is a new opportunity.  You can build on yesterday's success or put its failures behind and start over again.  That's the way life is, with a new game every day, and that's the way baseball is.”
