I lost my job unsurprisingly as a tourism practitioner due to the covid-19. From the beginning, I was so anxious about the epidemic situation and losing the source of income. Even though there were still some savings, I was worried about the uncertain future because of my house loan, causing me difficulty to falling asleep.

Yes, summer is almost here.. so what should we remember

Two months ago, my roommate approached me and stated that she wanted to join a gym to better her health. My first reaction was to freeze and process what she had said, because this was the same girl who made fun of me for tracking my protein intake and foam rolling my lower body when watching tv. My next reaction was to contain my excitement, fitness is my biggest passion and I was ecstatic to have someone come to me for support. Naturally, I talked a mile a minute overwhelming her with information on lifting, cardio, diet, mental health, goals and even protein powder. She asked me how I made it to a point where I wanted to workout everyday and how I stayed consistent. I told her about the different strategies that worked for me and I’ve watched her use these same strategies the last two months. She has reached goals, prioritizes her health and finds the time to move her body. Seeing how these strategies impacted both my roommate’s fitness journey and my fitness journey, I decided to share what I did and still do to stay consistent in the gym.
