der Schweinehund

inner resistance; one's lazy side

Meinen inneren Schweinehund überwinde ich leichter, wenn ich mir zunächst nur einen kurzen Spaziergang vornehme, statt sofort ein aufwendiges Trainingsprogramm zu planen.

I overcome my lazy side more easily by initially planning just a short walk instead of immediately devising an elaborate training programme.

swine; bastard

Ihn als Schweinehund zu beschimpfen, brachte ihre Wut zum Ausdruck, machte eine sachliche Klärung des Streits aber vorerst unmöglich.

Calling him a bastard expressed her anger but made a reasoned resolution of the argument impossible for the time being.
