There was another discussion this week about how busy I am, how I get up too early everyday to see Tom and have breakfast with him before work and he wishes this wasn’t the case. I completely understand 那 he’s annoyed 那 our morning interaction is me kissing him goodbye on the head in the pitch black (about 6.15am) while he grunts and rolls over. It’s not ideal. However 我不知道’t 知道 how to get around it. I like to exercise in the morning, and with an earlier start time at my new job, my workout has to finish by 8.15 latest. My marathon ban just adds to my own frustration when it comes to this argument.
对抗运动不是我的新知识。
有人告诉我,我以前做的是“不再有午餐时间参加健身课”,因为他们通常在我一小时的午休时间里跑5分钟(我会提早半小时来弥补这一点!)。在没有运动的团队中工作’优先考虑使得很难证明有时间准时上课或花我的午餐时间进行锻炼。
在假期与朋友和家人一起运动一直是一场持久的战斗,而我被告知只是放松一下!这就是我要做的放松!!在几年的家庭假期中,我的家人中有3个以上的人向我讲述了他们对我“不健康的运动习惯”的关注。我定期锻炼,每周约5天,不超过一个小时,至少要休息一整天,并且喜欢保持运动。我身体健康,身体健康,体重和BMI适当。我知道长距离跑步可能对您的膝盖/身体等有害,但我感觉自己在锻炼时保持良好的平衡,看身体检查,通常会尽我所能照顾自己。我不明白的是,为什么人们认为可以批评您的运动方式,但没有人提到喝酒过量,超重或吸烟的人?
On night’s out, I find myself giving excuses as to why I have to leave early or not drink too much. Usually it’s because I’m running the following morning, however this reason is met with groans and exclamations 那 it’s ‘so weird’ 那 I would get up early on a weekend morning to exercise. Why is it weird not to want to wake up with a hangover 那 leaves me confined to the sofa all day, achieving nothing on my two days off?
这是作为 reports announce 那 the recommended 150 minutes of exercise each week is ‘unrealistic’. Perhaps if people shift their viewpoint towards exercise and see it as a necessary addition to our day, and not only 那 but see 那 it can be a relaxing, enjoyable past time, rather than a punishment and a tool only for losing weight, then there wouldn’t be so many overweight, unfit and unhappy people in the UK!
您是否发现自己为自己辩解的理由’重新锻炼或训练某些东西?您是否曾经为锻炼而战?一世’d love to 知道 if I’m the only one 🙂

I think the comments 那 frustrate me the most are the ones when people call me weird/crazy/obsessed/odd just because I go running when it’s cold, or I get up early to exercise before having a day out somewhere. 我不知道’不要认为我的习惯过分强迫或陌生。跑步和保持健康让我快乐,我当然不’t see why it is ‘odd’ to want to do the thing 那 makes you happy! Great post – it’s nice to 知道 I’我也不是唯一的一个-
我同意艾莉(Ellie)的话,如果有什么运动是正常的,健康的习惯(尽管我已经看到人们将其摄入过多的水平,我也觉得这是不健康的!)感谢您的评论!
查理,你并不孤单!直到昨晚,我才和男朋友进行了讨论!
这个周末我要离开朋友 ’我第二天跑步的生日。我不能’t agree more 那 getting out and working out brings so much more enjoyment and achievement than lying on a sofa all day hungover! On holiday I feel like I have to keep my exercise a secret from friends and family (who don’t运动),因为他们担心自己的反应和判断力。它’太可怕了!如果只有更多的人可以将运动视为过去的愉快时光。
THANK you! glad to 知道 I’m not alone, although I do sometimes feel I am the only one battling it! I think if more people tried out different styles of exercises they would eventually find one 那 they enjoyed! I love the endorphins!!
像上面的卡拉州一样,查理,你绝对不是一个人!我个人不’t think there’s anything wrong with being weird/crazy/obsessed or 奇 if you have a goal you are trying to achieve after all, what’如果可以的话,这才是生活的重点’追逐自己的梦想?只是继续做你的事’re doing as it’对我们其他人的启发。
非常感谢您的可爱评论Phil!
I’已经阅读您的博客一段时间了,但是我’ve从未评论过。但是这篇文章真的让我很感动!它’措辞完美,我100%明白您的意思’re saying!
我特别同意饮酒/外出活动部分。它’s such a shame 那 the only way my friends all get together will involve a drunken night out! I thought this might change post-uni, but apparently not. I’我不喜欢深夜或喝酒过多,主要是因为我’早上会有一些运动计划,但是我还能怎样跟朋友们在一起?尤其是在进行马拉松训练的那一刻-那些早期的长跑很重要,而且在任何形式的宿醉下都是不可能的!一世’m conscious 那 people think I’只是因为我优先锻炼而感到无聊。
虽然我’m lucky 那 my boyfriend loves exercise too- I think we are actually ridiculed as a couple. We don’t brag/post selfies/judge other couples 那 don’t exercise so 我不知道’看不到我们为什么被嘲笑。
It’非常令人沮丧,但是’s good to 知道 other people are having the same issue. Great post.
非常感谢您对Katie的评论(并感谢您的阅读!)我完全支持与朋友一起喝酒的场景,为什么可以’t we do other things??? I get laughed at when I suggest 那 we go for a coffee or a workout class, or for breakfast on a weekend if it’在12点之前!我是自拍照的拍摄者,将其发布在社交网站上,而不是放在我的个人Facebook上,’t understand the resentment! It makes me soo sad 那 I feel I am losing some of my friends who don’支持我的生活选择!
嗨,查理,
与我上面的评论类似,这篇文章真的让我很感动,我只是想补充一下声音,告诉您您并不孤单。不得不反复地说明原因可能会如此令人流血的沮丧,因为有人认为漫长的周末跑步/清晨锻炼很“疯狂”,这些事情使我们感到高兴。
I’m lucky in 那 a fair few of my friends are very into fitness/ endurance events so they get it (and if anything make my training look soft!), but the constantly being told I’m ‘obsessed’ or ‘crazy’ by colleagues/family can really start to grate. I’m not asking them to make my hobbies their hobbies, it just so happens 那 I personally feel like the best, happiest version of myself when I am pushing towards some kind of fitness challenge or goal.
As much as I 知道 it’s usually not coming from a malicious place (rather they really just don’t get it), I can never understand why anyone would want to talk me (us) out of something 那 adds, rather than takes away, from our well-being?
Me too- we are improving our lives, both mentally and physically!! Thanks for your comment 露丝, glad to 知道 I’m not alone!
我很幸运,这不是’对我来说是个问题。我父亲对运动有些痴迷,从字面上可以’不要坐着,所以这对我长大来说是正常的。我们甚至有一个家庭郊游,在圣诞节早晨与另一个家庭一起去公园跑步,并组织我们自己的‘races’ when we’re on holiday. I’我从10岁起就开始跑步,所以我所有的朋友都接受’尽管我对越野之类的东西感到兴奋,但我仍然被称为“怪异”’刚刚预期。我必须承认,当我丈夫在7点左右下班参加马拉松训练时,我变得有些脾气暴躁,这意味着我必须等到至少8点才能吃晚饭,但是’大部分是因为我不能很好地适应饥饿!自我注意:对此有更多了解-
应该鼓励良好的习惯/积极的过去,当然不要担心。
嗨查理,我’已经阅读您的博客一段时间了,非常喜欢 –这是我的第一条评论,我想做出贡献,因为我真的希望你不要’t get discouraged this criticism and pressure! On an RRP episode (your recommendation got me into this!), Rich talked about how eating vegan is ridiculed in a way 那 eating junk food isn’t,但他说他只是继续学习,因为他知道’s right for him. 跑步 and living a healthy lifestyle makes me a better, happier person and I think we just have to be confident 那 we are doing what is right for us. Besides, doing what we do probably makes us better friends/partners/sisters/daughters etc during the downtime. What do you think?
真的很喜欢,谢谢查理。我有两种理论
1 –这么多人只是不’t get 那 exercise can be enjoyable, therefore they refuse to believe 那 we actually want to do it. It’仍然被很多人认为是琐事和您必须要做的事情。
2 –我们让非运动者感到内!!它’他们的防御机制开始发挥作用,他们需要让自己相信自己对运动的感觉是正确的,而我们是错的。
It’与食物完全一样。通过选择健康饮食,您可以接受各种评论。人们再次不’明白了。我很想强迫大家进行两个星期的运动和清洁饮食,然后看看他们的想法!
如果我没有’定期跑步我不会成为快乐,圆滑的人。这样人们就会有抱怨的地方!
对我来说运动是放松的时候,’这是一个赶上朋友的机会(而且没有电话!),它提供了一些安静的时间,听音乐的时间,听语言播客的时间,以及使我的身体更强壮的机会…我真的可以继续下去。我确实认为这是一种平衡,有时候您需要停止运动,但我挑战任何人,要提供比经常锻炼的人更多的弊病!
For ALL of this I can relate, the other major challenge I have is 那 I work 14-hour days these days and sometimes spend 6 hours driving in a day. 🙁
Oh my goodness, I have experienced this SO much! Nice to 知道 I’我并不孤单。很棒的博客– please don’不要因为别人的压力而陷入一种不同的行为方式。健康地生活很重要! X
是!很棒的帖子– I 知道 exactly how this feels. I nanny for a family at 5am a few days a week, and on my days off from 那 job I get up early to work out. When I’在锻炼前一晚和朋友出去玩我经常撒谎并告诉他们我’m babysitting to justify not drinking or staying out late. Everyone is fine with 那 reasoning but criticize me if I tell them I’我早起来跑步。人们真的把它当作个人批评,与他们无关!

我完全同意。我认为人们真的在向您投射自己的内gui /限制。我做的事情完全相同(提早起床/早退党/少喝酒),人们似乎认为’这是一个重大的道德决定。但是,是的,更健康的选择确实让我更快乐
I’是您博客的新手,已经很喜欢您-我已经多次遇到这个确切的问题……我的家人也遇到过同样的问题“concerned talks”和我在一起,我也听到about吟和贬低性的评论,关于晚上呆在晚上早起以在周末锻炼身体。
我只是觉得苦难喜欢陪伴,如果不是’别人喜欢什么,他们不喜欢’不明白’t willing to try to understand, why its what is important to you. Being healthy is important and no one else is going to make sure you are taking care of yourself, its up to you, so just smile and nod when the comments come your way and keep doing what you need to do to be a happy, healthy you. Remember, for all the ones 那 don’t like or understand your need to make healthy living a priority, there are a lot of us 那 are encouraged and inspired by your choices. Don’不要让他们失望-祝您跑步愉快!!!
Thank you so much for your lovely comment Nicki and welcome to the blog! You are so right 那 no-one else can be healthy for you, tonight I will smile, nod, laugh then get the tube home at 10pm!!
I’m so glad other people feel like this! Not 那 we should have to, but at least we’re not alone!
It’s ridiculous 那 in this world it’s seen as though the only way to enjoy yourself is to go out and get hammered every conceivable occasion. Even more ridiculous is 那 we’re seen as crazy for spending our time money doing something healthy, 那 we enjoy, 那 doesn’不会给其他人造成任何金钱或不便。同时,饮酒者,吸烟者,垃圾食品嘲弄者和其他人沉迷其中‘normal hobbies’ 那 fundamentally cost other’不便,时间和金钱带来不良影响。
我完全同意詹姆斯的看法,当人们知道我在健身房/班级/饮食上花了多少钱等等,他们认为这是浪费钱时,但是一包雪茄10英镑,酒中30-40英镑,这是很不错的钱花费??
Not 那 我不知道’t drink…可悲的是,我的饮料确实很贵-碳酸饮料和鸡尾酒! --
正如我的一位健身朋友曾经说过的,是的,健康的饮食和健身课程可能很昂贵,但是’投资于您的健康。考虑一下NHS花费了多少疾病(可归因于缺乏运动/饮食不足,例如肥胖,高血压等)!
我完全可以与工作相关,在上一个工作/公司时,我经常被问到那个周末我跑了多少英里,然后是“that’s too much!” I never felt like I could workout at lunch because no one would be ok with how long it took. Thankfully I left 那 job (for other reasons) and ended up with a company 那 is much more flexible and understanding. Of course it’s not always the case to leave a job 那’s not supportive I’ve found 那 if there are certain people in your life 那 don’t understand, balance it out with people 那 do. Join a running club or seek out friends 那 have the same interest in fitness as you –它让你感觉像你’不要因为热爱自己的工作而疯狂!
非常好。当我’m on vacation, I love using my extra free time to fit in workouts or activities 那 I just don’我没有时间做’在我繁忙的日程中上周末我在佛罗里达州,当我问他们为什么不去时,我的朋友们震惊不已’t going on their regular 5 mile run 那 day and then insisted on going with them! Exercise and staying active is a huge priority in my life and when it’s a priority, it means 那 things like social hours and nights out are de-prioritized accordingly.
I can completely relate to this. My parents in particular have said more than once, 那 I do too much, and they hope 那 I will cut back on my running/exercise because I was getting too skinny (I am well within the BMI for my height). They seemed so shocked 那 when I saw my doctor she said 那 what I was doing exercise wise was the best thing I could do for my overall health and well-being, and 那 all my testing levels were ones to be envious of.
我不知道’喝酒的时间,所以一般来说人们已经觉得我很奇怪,所以我只是在大多数时候耸了耸肩,但是与家人/重要的人在一起真的很难。与不健康的决定相比,人们对健康的决定更为挑剔。
幸运的是,我的丈夫理解并完全支持我的马拉松训练/举重/营养,所以我至少有一个人在我的角落。
我总是很难抽出时间在假期里锻炼身体。今天早晨,我的丈夫不得不在我们的酒店房间里等待2.5个小时以上,而我在跑步机上跑了12英里才吃完早餐。他 ’非常支持我,但我感到内
I completely agree with you on 那 one! Now 那 I am back at uni with 19-21 years old, my exercising habits seem even more weird to them but I really don’小心。给每个人自己。另一半确实变得更加复杂。他
Will not say no to exercising, however I cannot enter all the 种族 I’d like to.
I’m really lucky 那 my husband also likes exercise and has never complained about my running. I’我也非常热衷于坐在沙发上吃蛋糕和喝红酒,所以我觉得每个人都能看到我有一个很好的平衡。我的‘guilty secret’在2013年最后放弃肉– it’s mainly for ethical reasons (the amount of land/grain/water 那 goes into raising meat as opposed to using those resources for growing crops and feeding many times more people). So I tell them 那 it’因为不吃肉对我(狡猾的)心脏比较好,所以他们都明智地点了点头。
我只是‘know’您通过您的博客和我’ve never had any concerns about an exercise addiction (as opposed to other bloggers) but if 那 many family member have had the courage to speak to you about it, it might be worth having a quiet, honest think about whether or not they’对。从您对运动习惯的看法来看,他们只是让我大吃一惊,但诚实地考虑人民并没有什么害处’ comments.
您被告知迟到5分钟后不再进行午餐时间锻炼了吗?我的工作时间很灵活,所以我很早就来参加了很长的午餐来跑步或参加PT,或者留在后面来弥补一个早晨’长时间穿越山地车。它’安全和灵活性大有帮助。
如果我晚上出门转水,我经常会被称为怪异或疯狂’我早上跑步,但谁在乎– I’充分利用我的周末,这将是一个免费的宿醉,充满内啡肽的地方!顺便享受您的新工作-
I’m fed of hearing “You wouldn’赶不上我开车去!”和其他类似的陈述。一世’我放弃了我选择膳食的理由,并经常选择在社交场合中不与密友共进晚餐。与选择吃尽可能多的巨无霸一样,我选择食物的内心感觉要好得多’我见过其他工作人员继续忙碌。
Also, what a ridiculous report stating 那 150 minutes is not a realistic amount of time 那 people can work out for in a week. That is only 5x half hour activities. Even walking counts!
幸运的是我的工作在几个小时内都非常灵活,尽管当我在套装中或之后洗完澡时确实感到有些困惑。
I do find these attitudes are prevalent and incredibly frustrating. I have friends who call me obsessed, weird, mad etc. They do not seem to understand 那, as you said, this is my relaxation. This is my fun. Its the same on holidays with friends or family, this IS what I want to spend holidays doing! Furthermore it pushes me away from them and towards friends who either a) are happy to let me do my thing e.g. the friend who didn’当我去探望她并提早起床去跑公园时,或b)积极地想加入我的行列并与我一起锻炼时,请介意。
I also have friends who accuse me of being restrictive or over exercising. I am not restrictive in the slightest. I eat what I want when I want, chocolate particularly! But junk food makes me feel crappy. I like eating bad for me food 那’值得-例如非常好吃!人们对食物也没有足够的教育-我听到很多‘but you need carbs!’ because people don’t 知道 many vegetables contain lots of carbs. When it comes to exercise, 我不知道’认为我每周5/6次很多。我已经为此付出了多年的努力,并且我喜欢它的伟大。我不是在惩罚自己。在长工作日之前或之后,我会得到回报。
我也听到很多‘您很幸运,您喜欢健康的生活’. Erm I’m not lucky. I make sacrifices because my health is important. I worked to find forms of exercise I love and therefore can sustain. We all have 24 hours in a day. Some days 我不知道t want to do it, then I step out the door.
至于采取这种方式的动机…对于某些人绝对内。当朋友生气我’我不吃垃圾,也不扔伏特加柠檬水,这往往是因为他们认为我判断他们或者他们正在自我判断并感到内。我讨厌他们如何将这种罪恶感转移给我-我最终向他们的愿望鞠躬并吃了我希望没有的垃圾’在晚上或外出时,我会主动向人们撒谎,以告知他们我在喝什么(如果您要求男服务员将柠檬片或酸橙片放入水中,大多数人会以其为酒精饮料)。确实让我发疯。我不能说‘您吃得不好,您确实需要做一些运动,而且酒精摄入对您的身体非常有害’。有时候,我希望我能像人们真的那样自欺欺人。
对于某些人而言,其缺乏教育/便捷的思维。人们真的买进了‘跑步对你不利’trope,因为它适合他们-锻炼时可以免费获得卡!
For my SO, I think partially 那 I do sacrifice evening time with him to exercise, and partially it makes him feel guilty for lapsing on running. I can understand both. Now we are working on climbing together which is really helping, as it was the activity 那 took the most time out of seeing him (4 hrs or so an evening). We never see each other in the daytime so he doesn’请注意我早睡着的时候做运动,或者因为工作而吃午饭。周末他睡觉,所以我很早运动。
抱歉,我现在已经正式对自己进行了咆哮!
这是一个很棒的帖子,显然可以通过评论来判断’ something 那 has affected a lot of us. I’我从未经历过彻底的消极,我的另一半也很支持我,但我想大多数人都认为我’m insane for not drinking much or going home at a reasonable time, but I love working out and I enjoy it, so 我不知道’真正关心人们的想法。
感谢您发布!几年前,我开始定期跑步和锻炼,并为此在家人,朋友和我的男朋友方面苦苦挣扎。我喜欢锻炼以及它如何使我感觉到,但是我感觉我一生中没人能理解!每个人似乎都认为我’m insane for wanting to eat healthy, not drink excessively and go run 种族.
您并不孤单,泰勒!继续努力,感谢您阅读x
我不知道’经常发表评论,但是您的作品引起了我的共鸣。 (我知道我’我参加聚会的时间有点晚,但我只是偶然发现了您的博客。)我在工作中遇到类似的问题–当我不得不放下脚脚并包好东西以使我可以准时离开一次并参加旋转班时,我扬起了眉毛,但是却在2:30(!)离开,目的是要带孩子去学校,因为他们向另一个孩子扔了一根香蕉,没人打眼皮!我偶尔也会收到办公室其他女士的不满和评论,例如‘你试着跟着两个孩子跑来跑去,看看你要去健身房消耗多少能量’. It’很高兴(有点!)看到这会影响很多其他人–在我的办公室里成为少数派使我感到有些孤立!
Thank you so much for your comment. I 知道 exactly how you feel but good for you to have the courage and dedication to stick at it!
