Need a Better Reason to ‘Get In Shape’ in 2024 …

Legions of well-meaning individuals will have or are about to resolve or promise or pander to the idea of better health. Diets, exercise, and even yoga top the list of wellness doctrines embraced – perhaps in the alcoholic stupor – as part of the New Year ‘resolution’ tradition.

Most of these will fail, a few with the addition of expensive coat holders or sweater dryers originally designed and built as stationary bikes, treadmills, ellipticals, or weight machines. Some with pricey subscriptions to content meant to inspire, but you have to get on the equipment and then come back.

The goals are well meant but often lacking in proper motivation past the, well, it’s New Year’s, so this is a good time to act like I’ve changed since yesterday. There are a few who manage to pull it off but not most because they lack the proper incentive.

We are here to help, as is the young lady in the short video below with her words of wisdom to which I’ll ask, is this enough motivation for you to get in shape?

 

 

What do you think? That or something like it, and is it motivating enough? Maybe you could “run” for something else too—public office, to the polls to vote in local elections. To a public meeting or to a laptop to hold public and elected officials’ feet to the fire?

Plenty of options. Let us know what you plan to do.
