"I usually will stretch, journal, and keep the day open for whatever. If I had a day too busy in the week to get a workout in, then I move the workout to today and use the other day as a rest day. Climbing Everest is a big deal. This workout week is a big one that I took months to build up to. Soon the workload goes down as I taper my training to store up energy for the big event!
The key for me to stay motivated is to do a variety of activities every week. So when it says cardio I will interchange biking, hiking, running, skate skiing, and cross country skiing. If I can't climb outside, I'll go to the indoor climbing gym, or if it's raining, I might move a weight lifting session for a climbing session so I can climb outdoors. The key to success for me is looking at the calendar and having a bunch of choices to get the specific workouts in. Then I can easily adapt for my mood and time allowance. This gives me the best chance of success!"
