Are your expectations holding you back?

Learn about one of the biggest obstacles to a training comeback: comparing yourself now to who you were before your setback. No matter what stopped you from training, appreciate who you are now, and not who you were before your setback. Holding yourself to the standards you had before you stopped training may be unrealistic. An injury could have sidelined and weakened you. Or you may have experienced some other kind of physical change. Maybe your circumstances are completely different now. What used to be possible – like training five days a week – may not be realistic after a big life change. Recognize the changes that have happened, but don’t let them stop you. Set new goals that work within your current situation. Focus on where you’re heading now, and the progress you’re making on this new leg of your training journey.

Coming back to training is possible

It’s possible to start training again. Do it with the right mindset by learning about what happens to a body when it stops training, and why people who come back to training may be at an advantage. Getting back into training is possible. Set yourself up to succeed by remembering a few key things. Once you stop training, detraining starts a few weeks afterward, and you lose fitness. That means slowly losing strength and endurance over time. When you start training again, you’re at an advantage compared to someone who never trained. You remember how to do exercises, and your body may have retained some of its extra strength and endurance. Training is a journey. If you had a setback, don’t worry. You’ve now made the biggest, best decision: to come back to training.

Design your comeback for success

The best way to get back into training is to start progressively. Learn how, and what that means for you. You’re more likely to succeed in your comeback if you take your new situation into account and start back slowly. What were you doing before your setback? While it’s important to focus on the present, the past can be a guide to what you liked to do, and how often you liked What do you think you’ll still be able to do now that you’re coming back to training? What’s a realistic schedule for you now? Don’t be afraid if it’s not what you used to do. It’s better to train twice a week for a year than five times a week for just two months. Most importantly: Be honest with yourself! If something you used to do won’t be possible now, don’t worry. And if something isn’t working for you once you’ve started training again, don’t be afraid to dial it back.
