Training industry is currently booming like never before. Personal fitness is a
high priority in growing numbers of people with all sorts of goals as to what
they want from their gym membership. Whether driven by aesthetics Jordan
1 UK , health or fitness targets; it's not just members of Team GB
that are signing up for gruelling physical programmes and buying health food
stores out of whey protein powder. With New Year's resolutions in mind, I
started to think, what are the most popular motivations for an intense fitness
regime?
Forget-Me-Not
I challenge anyone to genuinely claim that
they've never considered hitting the gym in light of a relationship break up.
When we first meet that someone special, we've usually been keeping ourselves in
good shape Jordan
6 UK , firstly, as we have the time and secondly as we want to
attract that person that will eventually fill the time we used to spend at Zumba
classes! However, as the months go by, the romantic meals out and the wine and
takeaway in front of the TV start to take their toll and pile on the pounds. We
abandon our Sunday morning swim for breakfast in bed and before we know it we
are happier Jordan
5 UK , yet rounder, versions of our former selves. Then one day, as
you're wandering home having bought them their favourite muffin from their
favourite generic coffee house, you walk in to find them in a clinch with your
best friend! Once you鈥檝e finished weeping into your cornflakes and the anger has
begun to subside Jordan
3 UK , the one thing you're often fuelled by is the yearning to
show them what they're missing! So, you grab a whey protein bar, pick up the
telephone and put a call in to your nearest gym!
New Year New
You
There's nothing like the feeling of another year passing and a new
start to herald to spur you on to a new fitness target. The months are spread
out before you like little targets in themselves, allowing you to track your
progress Jordan
12 UK , weight loss and fitness as each one goes by. Your own age
can also be a factor, for example I e found that turning 30 often induces a lot
of thought about ageing and health. I've lost count of the number of friends
that have suddenly taken up running with a view to completing 10k's, marathons
and triathlons as they get closer to middle age. Gone is the folly of youth and
misguided thoughts of immortality, our health becomes important to us so the
fitness bug bites.
Charity Begins on the Race Track
Many people
who end up becoming quite serious runners Jordan
11 UK , collecting successful marathons like some do holiday
souvenirs, start out with a Charity Fun Run. It's a sad fact that our lives are
touched by personal tragedy and we quite often associate personal causes with
our favourite charity and decide to train for a short run to raise money. Having
successfully completed the first one, this can spur on further training and
fundraising all in the name of Charity. I'm weary of saying No to my children.
Not just the everyday No's. Don't hit your brother and No, you cannot have 5
pieces of candy. I am weary of the No I am continually saying to our culture.
The world is bound and determined to take away my children's innocence. They
want my children to grow up way too fast. They want my little girl to dress like
an adult. They want my little boy to know things he is way too young to know.
I'm weary of saying you can't go to that movie Jordan
10 UK , because it is not appropriate for your age. No, you can't
wear what everyone else is wearing, because it is not appropriate. The straw
that finally broke the camel's back was when my son walked in while I was
watching the news. He asked me, "Mommy is it true that men can marry men and
women can marry women?" "Mom Cheap
Jordan Shoes UK , if two women marry can they have a baby?" My son
is 6. I don't want to be discussing sexuality with him much less homosexuality.
So, I told him that no men can't marry men and women can't marry women (for now
anyway) and that women with women cannot have a baby. (Don't get me started on
explaining how they can). I should not be having these discussions with my
children, but I'm being forced too. What happened to childhood innocence? As I
was thinking about my weariness I remembered the song and verse in the Bible
about Standing in the Gap. I also realized that God cares more for my children
than I do. He is there to guide me and support my weariness. He knows there is
sin in the world. God wants me to rest in him and seek his guidance in these
difficult times. He wants me to s.
