I've had a love hate relationship with working out most of my adult lifel I went on vacation to see a friend i had not seen in many years, she is a very regimented gym-goer. She wasn't stopping her routine just becaue I was there and dragged me a long. Best thing that ever happened to me as far as personal fitness. That was in February and I've had a couple of hicups in my regimen but I have not fallen back to old habits for more than a few days. Working out/lifting/hitting the heavy bag has been great for my mental health as well as my phsical. Bad day at work? LOVE going home releasing the stress on the heavy bag! :)

Makes me feel better physically, mentally and emotionally. The energy, stress relief, endorphine rush all positive. I feel better and stronger than i have in several years!
