Coach: “Rachel, go pick up two 40 pound dumbbells and take a 200 meter walk.”
Me: “Um, No.”
Coach: “Rachel, go pick up two 40 pound dumbbells and go for a walk.”
Me: “Um, No.”
Coach: “Rachel, go pick up two 40 pound dumbbells and go for a walk.”
Me: “Ok, fine, I’ll go test it out. Um, no. Not gonna happen. Those barbells will tear my hands up. And, they are too heavy!”
Coach: “You can do it.”
Me: “No, I can’t. I’ll take two 35 pound kettlebells and go for a walk instead.”
Like how flexible and willing I am?! I very likely could have carried those weights, I just didn’t have a very open mind at the time. It should have been so hard that I had to use all my core strength to hold myself up. Anyhoo, next time, I will do it.
You can do this at home, too!
