What You Need To Know About Health And Fitness Challenges

It’s not always about hitting the mark or doing things exactly, but about deeper themes.

I’m in day 3 of a 100-day superhero workout challenge. For the next 100 days, I have to do 100 sit ups, 100 push ups, 100 squats, and a 10 km jog.

And I’m not going to lie, I’ve already technically failed the challenge. I failed this challenge before it even really started. On day 1, I only got halfway. Not to mention I walked for most of it.

By every stretch of the imagination, I have already failed. But while many people would get upset about that fact, I’m not bothered about it. Because there are more important things to be focusing on than the fact I can’t physically do those exercises every day.

The Challenge Is Really About Consistency

While many people would obviously want to complete the entirety of this challenge, the issue in so many cases is some people physically can’t. The challenge that I’m taking specifically is designed more for those who are more active than I am. These are for people who already do a good chunk of exercising and are looking for a challenge.
