Sabotage

Sabotage is what I think I keep doing to myself.

"I'm Fe Man and I sabotage my fitness!"

There I said it, and I feel relieved. Let me recap for you...

What I have been doing for the better part of 4 years is that as my fitness level has been getting to a certain point I would take a few weeks off. The point that I'm refereeing to is when you look at yourself in the mirror or step on a scale and say to yourself... a few more pounds and I'm there. The reasons for not taking it to the next level is more confusing to me then actually taking the time off.

I can understand taking time off after a major event, and even taking time off because of an injury, but the confusing part is that I take time off for no apparent reason. To compound the lack of fitness, is that during these breaks, I would typically not eat well.

So why do I do this every few months? ... I don't know.
