A first step can be that of a muscular build in front of the mirror- taken as part of the elite and exudes longetivity and discipline. Most people don't have what it takes to achieve such level of fitness.. I will be part of that 10% while others are rendered immobile in a wheel chair...

Let's talk in 2032- I will be 55 and retired with 2 pensions still running a 20 min 5k... That's not what I wan't to be taken as, that's where Im taking my life....

Think functional and physical will follow. The above mentality directly correlates to today's obsetity rate....

If you can see a muscular built person but not undertand the amount of persistence and dedication he or she put foward towards attaining such level which, most likely relates to outside of the gym, then it really doesn't matter at that point.

I don't think there's a correlation. Just because someone devotes a portion of time to their bod, it doesn't mean their just as devoted in other aspects of their life.

Example: Mike Sorrentino




Oh and not everybody gets fit and fabulous at the gym.
