Wake-Up Call

I was up far too late considering I had a 6:30 a.m. wake-up call. I'm severely hoping my body adjusts to this schedule soon so it is not so painful.

On a brighter note; I have hopes to obtain a gym membership after work. I am finding it increasingly difficult to find the will-power to exercise on my own. Prior to this, I was quite intrinsically motivated to take care of my body. However, with longer hours and a more demanding schedule, it looks like I will need some help. I refuse to have working-out escape my (almost) daily routine. Being one of my only hobbies, I am determined to keep at it and stay in shape.

Depression and Anxiety will take me over if I begin to neglect my work-out sessions. So many Americans struggling with obesity (and now I can somewhat see why) and it's quite sad. We're too caught up in other trivials of everyday lives and forget to take care of our-selves. Loosing weight aside, a regular exercise routine is very beneficial for the mind and body. It will prolong your life, increase endorphins, and make you an al around happier and more confident person.

I encourage everyone to take at least 30 minutes 2 or 3 times a week and take care of yourself. You'll be surprised at how much better you feel.

This is not meant to be a blog advocating weight loss per se...but seeing as health and fitness are very important to me perhaps I will chime in with helpful hints and motivation.

In my case...could kick boxing become my new hobby?
