As all of our sons are now grown and on their own, I love the adult interactions we now have. On a recent visit with one son, he mentioned his legs were sore from working out. He shared this huge amount of weight he was able to squat and in comparison, I shared that week I used 20 pound weights (much lighter!) for Bulgarian squats.
We discussed the areas we were sore and the benefits of these squats. This exercise can be used to work the quads or the glutes.
I shared a tip my trainer gives to focus on what muscle group we want to work. Look eye level for squats, allow your eyes to travel down when hinging for glute work.
"Oh, that makes sense", my son said. "Your body follows your eyes." I'm learning to use this method while working out, but how much powerful to put into practice for life applications.
"Every day offers reasons to complain and reasons to give thanks. Your life will follow the one you choose." I saw this graphic and loved how it complimented our conversation. You find what you are looking for. May we be people who look for the good. Remembering the goodness of God and His grace and mercy that are renewed each day. When God and His goodness are our focus, it is easier to see good all around us.
