Fitness Transformation
Yup there’s me 2.5 years after college, no doubt about it, I needed a fitness transformation. Not even 30 and already feeling like my best days were behind me. I was weak and I couldn’t get up off the couch and walk for a few minutes never mind run a mile. I always considered myself an active person even if I hadn’t been active in years. Sure I’d flirted with getting in shape. I played basketball in high school and a host of intramural college sports but I could never seem to keep my fitness regimen up for more than a few months without becoming frustrated and disinterested.
