The Holidays are already here!!!

Well, its that time of the year again! I always tell everyone this is the best time to get back on track with your fitness. If you can make it through these last two months, then there should not be a problem for you long term. The problem is most become paralyzed during these times and practically damage themselves in the process. I have my own theories:

TIME - It's too early, its too late, its dark outside, Oh my show is on!

CONDITION - Its too cold, Its too wet, its too hot etc..

FREE WILL - Dan John mentioned this in his book "Never Let Go" Free will is one of the biggest enemies not just in fitness but in life in general. An alcoholic knows that drinking is bad but due to his own free will and "because he can" its easy for him to just have another bottle than to actually quit and detox. When it comes to fitness especially around the holidays, its so easy for some to just have that extra cake, bowl of stuffing because that is your free will to do so. Besides who's gonna stop you from doing it. On the other hand you may not have free will to decide when you are going to go to work or pay your bills because not to do so will have circumstances.


So stay focused during these winter holidays and keep fitness as an awareness. Start NOW if you really mean it. Don't wait for the "New Year Resolutionist" crowds becuase that would be too cliche and futile. Besides don't you think you deserve it NOW?
