Tired, behind, or off track?

Well hello there!

When it comes to sticking with an exercise routine, bouncing back from injury, or finding motivation to move your body on a tough day, resilience is one of your greatest allies.

And yet, so many people believe that resilience is something you’re either born with—or not.

​Mark Black recently reminded me that this simply isn’t true.

Just like your physical body becomes stronger through practice and repetition, so does your inner strength.

You don’t need a life crisis to train for resilience.

You can practice it daily—especially through physical activity.

In fact, movement is the perfect training ground for resilience.

From pushing through a challenging walk to trying again after a failed attempt at a new yoga pose, your ability to keep going—to adapt, shift, and grow—is built rep by rep.

But to keep that momentum going, especially when things get tough, you may need a powerful mindset tool.

Enter: The 3P Reframe

Mark shares a helpful framework from his book, The Resilience Roadmap (Chapter 4: Adapt) to catch and shift the self-defeating stories that can hold us back—especially when things don’t go our way.

It’s called the 3P Reframe, and here’s how it works:

When something doesn’t go your way—like skipping a workout, feeling off during a run, or struggling with motivation—watch for these 3 thoughts:

1. Personal

“This is all my fault. I’m lazy and unmotivated. If I were stronger, I would’ve done it.”

👉🏼 This kind of thinking makes the challenge a personal flaw.

2. Permanent

“This always happens. I can never stick to a routine. I’ll never change.”

👉🏼 This makes the problem feel like it will last forever.

3. Pervasive

“Because I skipped my workout, the whole week is ruined. I’m failing at everything—my fitness, my goals, even work.”

👉🏼 This stretches the challenge across your whole life.

These thoughts can sneak in so easily—and they’re powerful enough to stop your progress if left unchecked.

So how do you practice resilience?

You catch the 3Ps. You name them. And then, you reframe.

Try This Reframe:

Instead of:

“I didn’t get my workout in today. I’m just not cut out for this.”

Try:

“I missed my workout, and that’s okay. One day doesn’t define me. I’m learning to be consistent, and I’ll try again tomorrow.”

It’s not about perfection—it’s about practice. Just like strength or flexibility, resilience builds over time.

Each walk you take when you don’t feel like it, each workout you modify instead of skip, each deep breath you choose instead of quitting… it all counts.

So the next time your movement journey gets tough (and it will), remember:
​You’re not failing. You’re training.
