Key Takeaways
Focusing on training and not just on exercising could potentially give you purpose and excitement.
If you’re struggling to be motivated on your workout routines now, maybe it's time to take a step back and reminisce about what made you excited when you trained before.
If you’re planning to transform your workout routine into something that makes you feel enjoyable, have a plan around that you feel confident with.
There’s nothing wrong if you choose to be in your experimental phase.
