In Episode 75, we discuss our 5th intention... "Make a Muscle." For us it means, staying active and living a healthy lifestyle. This intention actually is what started our trio (in a Zumba class!) and is a huge part of living the Pirate Life.
Favorite pirate memories of this intention:
- Running a half marathon on Saturday and taking a full-day Strong by Zumba class on Sunday (an unanticipated challenge that we leaned into)!
- Zumba teaching vacations!
- Challenges like 75 Hard!
- Coaching a college cross country team!
- Training with Derek (best trainer ever)!
Benefits of making a muscle:
- Meeting new people (Our friendship began in a Zumba class)
- Social time with friends
- Support
- Accountability (shout out to Shawna for making us run on the rainy days)
- Strong bones and muscles, brain health, etc. (Learn more from the CDC)
Advice:
- One step at a time.
- Find something you love.
- Find a buddy to help you to be accountable.
- Be patient. Progress takes time.
