You Do Have A Choice

 Hey everybody. Hope you had a great 4th. However I hope you didn't indulge too much, and if you did get ready to work all that off.

  Of course since most of you reading this are serious in your training, whether a warrior in real life or a warrior in athletic competition, you already know that and when you do indulge you'll get back on track immediately.


  Strength expert Pat Flynn wrote an excellent post about the choice we have to be obese or not. He points out in modern America people lack accountability and instead blame other factors. Well we make the final decision.

  Motivation and mental attitude are definitely 2 key factors in becoming a winner. That's the final ingredient beyond physical attributes and skill that separates the contenders from the quitters. As most of you reading my blog as well as my site, stluciestrengthfitness.yolasite.com, know I've battled the bulge much of my life. I've let myself go for many years. I was a heavy smoker. But as I commented, it's almost 13 years since I quit smoking, and over 4 years since I've lost and kept the fat off. Reaching for the top motivates me. I'm serious about reaching the top. If you're also serious you have to decide whether you'll quit and live for just donuts and beer, or put your heart into your training and make serious, and possibly major lifestyle changes. Which is it? The couch or the winners circle?
