Back on track with Aunty Nurse

Hello Dear A.N.B readers,
How are you doing? I've been off the scene for a while and its simply because I've been unmotivated to write.I couldn't quite put a finger on why I lost the motivation.. Until now...

I haven't worked out the way I like to in months. My favourite kind of workout is running/jogging. But in December last year we moved from the neighbourhood where we used to live and  the new neighbourhood has zig-zag "jaga-jaga roads making it terribly far from conducive  for running. In my former house, jogging was so convenient because the roads were perfectly tarred and if you're a runner or jogger you'll understand why perfectly tarred roads are essential.

Me and Thiago after my workout!!!

I tried alternative workouts like Tae-bo and Pilates but getting instructions from some guy in a video could be boring and its not a good substitute for jogging. So for a while, I've made the excuse that I don't work out any more because its impracticable.

Today, I woke up with a resolve to find a way to workout even if it meant running along the express way. It turns out it was the best decision every. I got dressed in my shorts and trainers. My shuffle clipped on to my tank top and away I went. I ran along the expressway listening to MI and Djinees "overkilling it", Jay-Z and Fabulous, Davido-O and so on. I imagined myself jogging with them...lol Then I listened to Banky W when I wanted to do some Slow paced exercises. This method is super effective for me lol and maybe u could try it.

I ran down the expressway for those who know that area, from Sangotedo to Crown Estate and back. Music is a really good workout companion for me and studies have shown that it makes a difference for most people, that;s why most gyms have upbeat music on all the time.

If you have an excuse for not working out.... Just like I have done.... get rid of the excuse and get ur body into good shape. You have a lot more to loose than to gain. Don't wait till you're over weight or obese because then, working out  becomes even harder.

In my time of laziness, I gained about 5kilograms almost 10pounds. If you've been lazy and making excuses forgive yourself, get up and join me on the path to wellness.

Coming up next..... How Martha got rid of the Matter

Happy Holidays!!!

Signed,
Aunty Nurse
