Add Rest To Your Workout Goals

Why Type A Personalities Must Learn To Rest

· rest,goals,physical activity

Rest? Aren't you a dance company? Shouldn't you be promoting physical activity?

We admit it. All of us on the Flavor Company Dance Entertainment Team are drivers. We're do-ers, type-A personality people. We push ourselves. We're fighters.

In this last year, we've been working on setting rest goals. Our Director, Belle, reminds us that we're in it for the long haul. We're here to dance until the day we die. And, as all athletes know, you can't perform over the long haul if you don't plan rest into your training regime. You will simply burn out.

What does that mean in practice? It means being as disciplined about mental and physical rest as we are about mental and physical work.

If you find yourself in a similar situation, we invite you to rest with us this Monday or Tuesday. Some suggestions:

  • cancel your planned workout
  • take a nap
  • remove one thing from your to-do list

Tell us what you end up doing to rest and how it felt. We read every email you send.

Love,
Lys & Belle
