Basics: stay in motion

A rolling stone gathers no moss.

An object in motion tends to stay in motion.

A well-rested person does everything better than a tired, run-down person.

Stay in motion. Take the stairs. Park in the back. There may come a time when you can’t do any of those.

Curbing your motion will accelerate the inability, or severely limit your ability, to do this things.

Build like you mean it

Page from a Church bulletin
On this rock you will build your temple – the temple housing everything keeping you alive.

Pro tip: Get your first personal victory of the day in the morning, before the day beckons and calls.

You’re welcome.

Can you do 10-20 push-ups?

Apple Watch
Yesterday, biked a 20-miler. Stopped midway to visit Magic Kingdom. Also walked 4-5 miles.

Can you do 10-20 push-ups?

How about pull ups, how many?

What about walking briskly, how many miles without stopping?

Knees locked, how close to the ground do your finger tips get?

(Knees locked, can you place your hands palm-down, flat on the ground? Yes.)

If your daily food intake where public record, do you feel like you eat with integrity?

If your sleep habits were public record, would you feel satisfied with what you and others see?

Hanging from a tree limb or other parallel bar, with knees locked and legs parallel with the ground, how long can you hold you feet out in front of you? If this was a viral video of you attempting this, how would you feel?

In none of these questions did weight come up. Not talking about weight. Weigh whatever you want…

But scoring poor to just ok in strength, stamina, core, flexibility, nutrition, rest and motivation – is it because you don’t want to be physically vibrant or because you don’t think you can?

Can’t and won’t are not the same.

It’s your life, do the reps, keep your fire burning.

It’s your biggest responsibility – self care.

Be an example, not a warning.

When you don’t do this

When you don’t do this.

What?

When you don’t allow for physical neglect, you are honoring the temple housing everything keeping you alive. Bravo!

Still climbing trees?

love your body sign
At Massage Envy yesterday.

Note: this post is the voice of someone, anyone, talking to me.

Still climbing trees?

Really.

That’s awesome!

How old are you?

Shut the front door.

Wow.

Humbled.

Maybe I should start climbing trees again.

Why did I stop?
