Girl Goes the Fitness Path

Who doesn't need a healthy living which can be easier to achieve and a lot more fun. Everyone's super busy these days, with their time being valuable. So to really squeeze out time to get fit can be a daunting task. It's extremely easy to procrastinate but you really need someone to kick you in your butt and ask you to get into those yoga pants that are getting shredded in your wardrobe.

With working out, one of the most important ground rule is to keep it real. You will not wake up to a six-pack abs overnight. It's important to have someone constantly remind you that to be fit is a no-bullshit approach. A mix of workout can be awesome fun - Cross fit, kick boxing, yoga, boot camping (I am sure there are many more to come as I explore my workout routine). Someone truly said, variety is the spice of life. It's so apt when it comes to workout, because unless you beat monotony, there's no fun.

Fitness not only makes you stronger, it also empowers your thoughts, makes you more self-loving and self-accepting. As a women, it helps you get candid with your body, appreciate feminism.

For the avid food-lover that I am, fitness comes to me as an added advantage because it keeps my metabolism raring to go so that I can binge on anything. Yes, I know you might be thinking that if I don't maintain a diet to go with fitness then it's all gone down the drain. But who cares, as long as I make heads turn, I am good on the fitness-meter. ;)

To be surrounded by friends who vouch on being fit is a value add. They inspire you, challenge you, motivate you and in the end don't feel complex in complimenting you. You just feel refreshed on an otherwise ordinary day. The transformation stories that you narrate with pride is all worth it. It's only when you evolve, is when you deeply fall in love with yourself and being fit does just that. It helps you evolve and re-energize  yourself.

I only wish I had started off a lot earlier, but better late than never. I just love the new me, the fit and fabulous me.
