Okay boys and girls, enough is enough! You’ve downloaded a couple of dozen e-books, spent money on a CD course or three and joined your local gym. Now you’re complaining because you’re still flabby and overweight. Guess what? That’s because you don’t get fit by spending money: You get fit by working out!
Let’s start with you men. You take a look in the mirror and decide that it’s time to buy an e-book about washboard abs so you can look like the guy on the cover. Then you print it and put a staple through the pages. After all that work, you decide its time for a break, so you grab some erotic comics and a snack and sit down and read for awhile. Six months later, the workout manual is in the same place you left it before.
Gals, is this what you did? You ordered an aerobics workout DVD online. When it came in the mail, you popped it into the player and sat on the floor to study it once before you actually followed along. The next time you played it, you sat on the floor and worked on your disney scrapbook while it played in the background. You haven’t looked at it since.
As for that gym membership – they must love you there! You just pay them a bunch of money every month and maybe go in for a half-hearted warm-up on the exercise bike before you decide that you’re feeling a little run-down and better come back tomorrow.
They love you at the gym because like so many of their other members, you pay them for a service you never use. Your loss is their gain. You don’t cost them a dime, but continue to pay them big bucks for your gym membership.
What you do with your body is nobody’s business but yours. Just keep it that way, okay? Stop whining about how nothing you’ve tried works. It doesn’t work if you don’t use it. You don’t lose weight by thinking about it and you don’t get strong by going to a personal massager. You do that after you’ve had a good weight training session and have earned a good massage. What ever made you think that having your flab massaged would make it go away?
If fitness is really your goal, you really will stop complaining and start doing something about it. Otherwise, just go back to your comics and scrapbooks.
