We started having fitness challenges at work that is a contest based off of body fat percentages. We compete as a team to see which team is in the best shape. Working out is changing my appearance and my attitude towards life. I am very confident in my ability to perform physical tasks without worrying that I am going to hurt myself or someone else.
I want to be a great example to my family and friends to hopefully inspire them to do what they can to get in better physical shape. If we can collectively get in better shape, then we are helping each other out as well.
In my humble opinion, when you look good, you feel good. When you feel good, you become confident in other aspects of life. Confidence leads to more exposure to different types of experiences that ultimately help you.
Working out has helped me tremendously in performing better at work and doing the hard physical tasks required of me. Working out will ultimately help me live longer so that I may enjoy the family longer. I am a great example to my family.
