Are you relaxing on the lake? By the pool?
Me, I am doing my usual....teaching classes to those who are on their fitness journey. Although, I am excited to say that Monday, will be a true "day off".
Our military personnel and veterans, who have fought for our country, (I know, I am Canadian) have performed acts of valor in order for us to live the lives we choose to live.
Valor-defined as bravery, boldness, determination in the face of danger, heroic, courage and bravery!
So, I am helping those on their fitness journey and I want to share, that the people who come to the gym, that have never worked out, maybe that are quite overweight, are also, acting in valor.
They are brave, and they have courage. It takes a lot to come to your first fitness class, or go into the cardio room, and see all the machines, not knowing which one to use for which exercise.
They become even more courageous when they ask how!
For me, I love when someone new comes to the fitness room, to take my class, and they tell me, it's their first time. And they are still there at the end, and I see them again, again, again.
According to google, a synonym for valor, is spirit!
Now we're talking!! A brave spirit! Hoping that is me...and wanting it to be you....
So, take a step out of your comfort zone and delve into the battle for health and well being! Our soldiers stepped out into a different battle and they did it with pride (maybe a bit of fear too).
Happy Memorial day everyone!
