Keeping Your Fitness In Check!

Being great at one thing doesn't quite justify as being "Fit" in my book. And i think a lot of professional athletes agree with me on this one. If you are a great football player, you have good strength, speed and endurance. If you play volleyball your skills are in agility, strength and the ability to jump higher than most people.



This trend of multifaceted ability stands true across the board. I am not going to say that any one skill is more important than any other. Use your time wisely in the gym and become a well rounded individual. If you stick to doing one thing, you will miss out on a world of opportunity in the fitness community.

Don't just run, or bike, or swim. Do them all in a rotation that keeps your body guessing on what is next in your training.

Put it this way, if you had advance knowledge that in 365 days you would be in a fight for your life. You don't know what your opponent will be, or what will be asked of you. The logical thing to do would be to increase your overall strength, endurance and speed. This should be your mindset every day because you never know if your life will be in danger or what you will have to do to survive.
