Living my best life is important to me.
- I’ve made an effort to continue to learn and grow as a person over the years.
However, I haven’t always been conscientious about taking proper care of my body. I am trying to focus more on my health and wellness now. Thanks to the health and fitness center, I’m doing much better. I know a vital area of good health and mood is linked to being physically active. But to easily keep active takes a lot of work and dedication. That is how I got interested in signing up at the local health and fitness center. I had been attempting to handle my fitness on my own. I was going for runs and riding my bike, but these activities were sporadic at best. I have never been athletic and really had no idea how to best manage my physical fitness. I had never had a gym membership. I had never even been inside a local gym. I was embarrassed that I was in such terrible physical condition. I had to really work at it to convince myself to spend the money on a gym membership and actually use it. I needed to set some health and wellness goals and work toward them. I also needed to realize I couldn’t accomplish those goals by myself. I needed the assistance and support of a certified fitness expert. I told myself that it’s like anything else in life. It’s best to hire professionals. I don’t work on my own car. I go to the dentist for teeth cleaning. So why not pay a fitness professional to help get me in shape? It turned out to be a really great decision. The trainer is just wonderful to work with. She’s encouraging yet holds me accountable. She pushes me to work harder.
