Looking Back and Moving Forward
by CoachRyan
I just put up a new post on my website about looking back on your victories over the last year or so and then moving forward into 2011. While the post is not centered around swimming or Total Immersion, the idea defenitely applies to your Total Immersion swimming practice. Below is the beginning of the post.

So, this morning while on the scale (which I use way too often), I was disappointed with the number that was shown on the digital readout. I really shouldn’t be surprised with the number given the way I have let my nutrition slip over the past few weeks leading up to the holidays. As some of you may know, I have been doing Insanity over the past 8 weeks and have been working very hard on my workouts. For the first 4 or 5 weeks of the program, I also worked very hard on my nutrition and dropped a few pounds, but over the last few weeks I have become more relaxed in my daily nutrition and the results have been as one would expect (no weight loss and even a pound or two creeping back in). However, even though I started out disappointed with the number, I did something that I always try to remember to do when I become disappointed with my fitness results or the number on the scale (which is not the best measure of your fitness anyway): I took a step back and reviewed my last few years of fitness and remembered my victories and then I made new goals for moving forward.
