so in the world today it can be a little overwhelming looking at VH1's top 100 hot bodies of the year of whatever its called. the media smashes us with these images of the perfect bodies, male and female. well in my calculations, less than 1% of the world has a perfect body, but that doesn't mean we cant come close.
genetically not everyone can have a six/eight pack, buns of steal, pecs to die for, but it doesnt mean that you can't find what works for you. we have to find realistic goals and achieve them.
so what, you've gained a little weight, ok, a lot of weight and you are embarrassed. your gym clothes don't fit anymore and you make every excuse not to go to the gym. you are probably just embarassed because you lost the stamina you had and your belly hangs a little bit, oh well. never become complacent with the image that you hate when you can do something (HEALTHY) about it. the gym was invented for a reason, and there is also a reason that gym's arent outdoors. it's the sanctuary for fitness.
go out and buy some new gym clothes if that's what it will take to motivate you. no you don't need the new Nike shox and full out Livestrong outfit. there are cheaper options. head over to Walmart or Target and get some clothes. let's make it even cheaper, you have a shirt, just go get some fresh shorts or pants, some new socks, and some new underwear. new things make you feel good and put you in the character of the things you bought. you buy some new running shorts and you will want to run because it makes you feel like a runner. you buy some new fly/flattering underwear you will feel....well yeah, just get some new underwear. do what you have to do to be the change you want to see. remember it wont happen over night, but its a step at a time.
stop finding excuses, stop being in denial, and get healthy. drop the six pack (beer) and pick up the other six. (health, love, determination, happiness, self fulfillment, life)
