Be Fit

T
around about what being “FIT”
means.
Somewhere along the line we were subconsciously told that “FIT” meant walking
around competition ready all the time. That
if we didn’t have popped out abs and cuts in
for the newest toughest bootcamp class
because you know you can get through it.
Somewhere along the same line women were targeted (also it MUST have been
subconsciously) and told that if you were
from living a life of nutritious and valuable
foods while moving your body in as many
ways as you can as often as you can.
FIT comes in all sizes, shapes, ethnicities, ages and styles.
A Powerlifter, a yogi, a bodybuilder, a
track athlete, a cyclist, a runner, a martial
artist, a grandmother, a grandfather, a sister, a son… we all look different because
we ARE different. My “FIT’ may not be the
numerous photos of you showing the world
your under boob…..I mean your abs.
We were also told that as long as you are
lated way that posing in a thong with your
ass IN EVERYONES FACE that it’s totally
“Know your limitations ...
Then Defy Them”

To the women who are taking near naked
photos of themselves for social media purpose, I can only assume that you are doing
so with the intention and hopes of attracting male interest and compliments. Ladies,
I can assure you that the men who WILL
respond and comment and oogle over your
photos are NOT the men that will be loving
you and treating you with kindness and respect, so why on earth are you wasting your
time and disrespecting yourself?
Do you want to show off your FIT body?
Post a video of yourself doing something
strong? Or a photo that shows your strength
dence pride and self respect.
Being Fit is not a body fat percentage, it
is a way of life.
grown over food that comes from a pack-
with the garbage on the weekends because
…well it’s the weekend and all my friends
are partying.
I think it’s great to take motivation and
inspiration from the mass of social media
account promoting FIT BODIES, as long
as you know and are okay with the fact that
these bodies are almost always just coming
up to or just completed a competition, and
like this.
In order to get your body to the point of
these pictures, you are dieting down very
strictly while training very intensely to end up
with your lowest body fat percentage . You
are NOT living this way long term, its simply
not healthy or realistic. So take ideas and
excitement from the physiques you admire
but never, ever ever compare yourself or tell
YOU ARE FIT, YOU ARE STRONG, YOU
ARE CAPABLE AND YOU ARE JUST
PERFECT THE WAY YOU ARE
