A Healthy Jerney begins with you! You gotta want it, then you gotta commit. The reasons for starting this Jerney could be vast, health, love, competition, hate, desire, or a new beginning. Whatever your reason, you have to commit. Diet and exercise isn’t some complex science that only fit people with savage looks understand. In a world of natural diets and a hunter gatherer lifestyle non of us would be obese, we wouldn’t suffer from the diseases we have, and our overall health would be above average across the board. Processed foods, fast eating, overeating, and laziness has created the American epidemic that we witness today. Heart disease, arthritis, cancer, obesity, you name it and it can be traced back to diet and exercise. If you are ready to change your life and change the life of people around you it’s going to start with a commitment from you.

Finding A Gym That Is Right For You

It’s hard to go out into the backyard and take yourself seriously when your siblings are playing games and your mom is yelling out the window. you need a place to focus, to get away from it all for a bit and just commit to an hour of  YOU TIME.
