What's Your Why?


3 years agoI realized that my health and fitness journey wasn’t all about ME.  For years I had this idea that I needed to work out and eat healthy because I didn’t look a certain way and since I ate horrible yesterday i needed to workout today.  It was an ugly, ugly cycle. Yes, I actually really liked working out.  It was my outlet but it took over in an area of my life that I wasn’t expecting.  And that was Christ.  I wasn’t Christ centered, I was ME centered.  

So three years ago I discovered a community within the walls of health and fitness.  I saw that I mattered and others mattered and that we were all on different levels of fitness.   It finally clicked that God has given me this ability to take care of myself so I can help others and point them to Christ.  It was like a light bulb went off and I ran with it!  I began to pray about my health and fitness, for my family and for others around me to understand how important it is to take care of ourselves in a healthy way with a healthy mind set focused on Christ.

Maybe you are in the some place I was.  Trust me, there is so much freedom when we let go of the scale and crazy expectations and run with real purpose!  

 I would LOVE to hear YOUR story!
