Fitness and Family

In our society today the idea of health and family doesn’t go with the idea of success.  We are preached to work hard to get where we need to be.  The problem is people have the idea the more new sh*t they have or the more money they can blow at the bar is the way to show they have made it in their life.

Now this brings me to what we are missing.  By creating a society which depends more on the amount and/or quality of your belongings we have forgotten about the importance of our health and family.

Most can relate to this in one way or another, I would think.

Now to change this we as people need to make a change slowly back to a society that puts health and family first.  Does that mean you can’t go out and have a good time ever so often, no.  It means instead of trying to impress people who don’t care about you, start spending time with those who do care about you.

Now most are going to say there just isn’t enough time in a day to take care of my health and spend time with my family.

My answer to that is Bull Sh*t

You can make time for your family and take care of yourself with some very easy changes.

First off start eating better and including your kids on the meal choices.  Explaining to them the importance of different foods.

Second include your kids when you workout.  Now for those of you who are say to yourself, “But that is my time”, quit whining and suck it up.  Your kids are only going to be young once.  Besides most kids just want to spend time with their parents.

There will be more to come on this topic but for now I am going to go workout and play with my kids.
