Your Workout Needs Fuel - When Your Body Comes to Life After Lethargy

Hi, I'm Seo Jun 😊.
Today, if you're like me You're working out consistently but feel strangely lethargic께
I'd like to share a story that might help you a bit.

I've been working out consistently for a long time.
Fitness, jiu-jitsu, calisthenics, weighted vest training...
My strength has increased, my body has gotten stronger, and I've definitely seen growth.
But at some point I started to feel heavy, lethargic, and unmotivated.

---

I'm tired no matter how much I exercise,
It was boring and unmotivating.

It was really weird.
I wasn't lazy, but I had a good daily routine,
I was also practicing meditation and affirmations,
Your mood becomes sluggish, and your workouts become mechanical,
I even started dozing off when I was affirming.

At first, I thought it was a mental issue.
“Am I weak?”
“Is it a lack of willpower?”
I also beat myself up.

Then today,
I realized something very simple but powerful.

■ It was like driving a supercar without fuel.

Looking back at recent meals,
I realized that I was limiting myself to one meal + two snacks per meal.
I also have to watch my body fat, so I try not to eat too much.
But when I think about the intensity and amount of exercise I usually do,
That was a lot of fuel for one meal.

Fully It was like driving a supercar that ran out of gas.
So I was helpless.
My brain was tired, my dopamine was depleted, and my emotions were heightened.
When it's really bad, it sounds like Like a little tune I could feel it.
Now that I think about it, I think it was a signal from the brain.

■ But when I ate my meals properly...
My body came back to life in a weird way.

Today, I'm really excited about
“It's time to refuel,” I thought to myself.

So I was more mindful than usual and packed my meals.
You've eaten enough, with an even mix of carbs, protein, and fat.
And then...

Suddenly, you feel lighter, clearer,
You feel like you want to move.
Affirmations are better, meditations are more immersive,
It felt like my brain was properly “awake” for the first time in a long time.

In the meantime, my body was alive,
Turns out it was waiting for fuel.

I have no energy.

Conclusion of the day

Workouts need fuel after all!

Because if you run without gas, you'll eventually stop.
I did, too, and now I'm refueling and running again.

The thing is, refueling isn't as hard as you might think.

One hot meal, one balanced meal,
Just giving yourself permission to do that
My body and mind started to come back to life.
