Have you ever done something that’s scared you or made you feel totally out of your comfort zone?

When I was younger and in school, there was one thing that I was very afraid to do, Public Speaking. I’m not sure what about speaking in front of people scared me or made me feel totally uncomfortable, I just knew that I didn’t like doing it.  I would avoid raising my hand or doing anything that would result in the teacher asking me to come to the front of class and talk. 

Finally one day I decided that enough was enough. I was tired of feeling trapped and unable to do something that I wanted to be good at.  How did I fix this?  I volunteered to speak as often as I could.  Sure at first it was terrible, however once I started to speak more often, the better I felt!  Now I can speak in front of anyone without a single ounce of fear or doubt!

The same goes when it comes to your fitness.  All too often people are afraid of getting into a fitness routine. Sure they feel like crap right now and they know that they need to do something about it. They are just filled with doubt and fear.

What if I’m too out of shape to start?

Will I be able to do anything at the gym?

There is no way I will fit back into those jeans, is there?

STOP!  Excuses will get you NO WHERE in life!  Take the first step and take action, go after what you want.  Sure it may be tough at first and not something that your used to. Heck, it may be so far out of your comfort zone you don’t know what to do!

Trust me, if you step out of your comfort zone and make it a point to exercise, even join a bootcamp, you’ll be setting yourself up for success.
