The Journey Starts Somewhere

I hear people talk about how they want to lose weight, how they want to improve their health, and how they want to live a fuller life.  However these same people are unwilling to put in the time, energy, or money into it.  Well I am going to break it down in this post. 

TIME -  I hear this all the time.  I don't have time.  My life is hectic right now, I will try later.  But later never comes.  I bet if you would get 100,000 dollars for doing something for 8 hours a day outside of your normal activities (work and errands) you would MAKE the time wouldn't you?  Then why does your health take the back seat?  Your health is more important.  Your health is what your family wants and you know what?  It doesn't take 8 hours a day.  It is about an hour of your time each day.  That is just 4% of your total day!  I know you got the trip to the gym, and getting ready, so it is more than 4%.  I will cover that more in money. 

ENERGY - Inactive lifestyles lead to a lack of energy.  You feel run down, you want to just veg out, eat junk and drink cola or alcohol.  Well that junk food and alcohol is part of the reason you are feeling that way, SO CUT THEM OUT!  They are just empty calories.   Instead choose healthy fruits and veggies and drink your water!  Stay away from energy drinks.  These fall under the empty calories arena.  Also as you workout you will feel more energy, as well as self confidence and motivation. 

MONEY - I know the gym can be expensive.  I know that the current economy can make things tough.  However what are YOU worth?  People seem to have money for trivial stuff like tattoos, cigarettes, alcohol, video games, etc., but will put their health on the back burner.  Time to change that if you want to be healthy.  You need to make an investment in YOU.  Getting at home programs like Turbo Jam, Insanity, or P90X are cheaper than a gym membership, more convenient, and funner to do.  So get an at home program and you use that 4% of your day towards your health.

So how do we get started?
