Losing your mojo

In a total mojo black hole at the moment. I’ve had a really bad run since Easter where a year or so of lockdowns and looking after three young kids during the day then working all night (no more than four hours’ sleep) finally took its toll. Had a series of illnesses (basically just pure exhaustion / burnout) then a serious back injury (getting one of the little ones out of the bath, but caused by crouching over kitchen table on a little laptop for hundreds of hours a month during the lockdowns).

I’ve gone from being a competitive time triallist and FTPing around 360 to barely being able to turn a pedal and being 15kg heavier.

I know I just need to get back on the bike and start again, but I can’t seem to do it. I’ve been so consistently on the bike for so many years that I’ve always been building or tapering, but now I’ve got such a mountain to climb I can’t seem to just start. I’m so out of the habit of fitting training into the day that it now seems alien and too much (on top of kids / work etc).

Anyone got any tips that have helped for just shaking yourself out of this kind of slump? Not being on the bike is ruining my mental health, but I just can’t seem to put my kit on and get the fuck on with it.
