It is no secret that fitness is a top contender for ‘trends to try in 2018’. Can you even remember a time when eating cheap, fast and fattening food was ‘in’? And it was only the rich and powerful who had access to ‘rich’ foods and coupled with the surprising need for very little need for exercise.
Truth is what we define as attractive features is completely fluid, what’s hot today is not tomorrow. So, we’ve learned to associate what is essentially, obesity with money and power.
Well, times have changed and that look has fell completely out of favor and what’s currently trending is striving to lead a balanced life in every aspect; food, level of activity, work, relationships you name it. Balance. The Ultimate Goal.
This month we want to encourage you all to really take some time to really think through why you want to start on this journey if you haven’t taken the leap yet or why you keep showing up to those training sessions. Is it to feel better? To look better? To develop a stronger mental health state? To challenge yourself physically and test out what you are capable of?
We believe a combination of these reasons will not only put you on the right track in your journey, but it will make it much easier for you to maintain the lifestyle. Once it becomes a means for personal/ mental/ emotional growth for YOU, then the true transformation begins.
It is no surprise that the more you help your body, the more you help your mind. Physical activity increases the flow of oxygen to your brain and it also increases the amount of endorphins, the “feel-good” chemicals, in your brain. For this reason, it’s not surprising that people who are in good physical shape also tend to enjoy a higher level of mental agility.
Invest in powering your journey with the proper knowledge to ensure you succeed whatever your goals may be.
