You can’t out-exercise a bad diet

I saw this little saying this week, and it really hit home. Being an ex-athlete (and I stress the ex part!), I always thought that there was no amount of food that I could consume that I couldn’t overcome by just “working out a little longer”. After all, when I was playing ball in college, they used to force us to consume at least 10,000 calories per day during our heavy workout parts of the year. However, there were a couple of things I didn’t take into consideration:

---First of all, I was 18-21 years old when that happened. My metabolism at 18 years old was running like a car at the Indy 500. My metabolism at 50 is entirely different (now it’s more like a Ford Fiesta!).

---Secondly, we literally worked out 4-6 hours per day, at a very hard rate- probably at a rate that I could never achieve today, mostly because you need to refer back to the first reason (the 50-year-old thing!).

The truth is, after we get out of college, there is never the amount of time or energy to spend on those kinds of workouts. We have to become, for lack of a better term, smarter! Over many, many years, what we put into our bodies basically defines the health we will have as we get older.

Please understand, whatever we eat is totally up to us, and we have nobody to blame but ourselves- for instance, I usually say that I purposefully weighed more than 350 pounds at one time. After all, I never accidentally ate anything in my life! As far as our health, we definitely reap what we sow. However, you can turn that around- starting today!

Make the decision today that whatever you put in your body is something you can live with 10-15 years from now- because that is exactly what will happen!


Have a great week.

  1. De bonnes informations ici, je voudrais partager avec vous toute mon expérience en essayant d'obtenir un prêt pour développer mon activité de vêtement ici en Malaisie. J'ai eu beaucoup de mal à faire des affaires à cause de ma courte maladie, puis quand j'ai été soigné, j'ai eu besoin d'un fonds pour le reconstituer. Je suis tombé sur M. Benjamin, agent de conseil en crédit chez Le_Meridian Funding Service. moi, mon projet d’entreprise et je lui ai dit que j’en possédais déjà un et que j’avais juste besoin d’un prêt de 200 000,00 USD, il m’a donné un formulaire à remplir et j’ai aussi demandé mon ID valide dans quelques jours. Ils ont fait le transfert et mon prêt a été accordé . Je tiens vraiment à apprécier leurs efforts.
