Ok, so its  Sunday, February 15th and I’m driving back to Atlanta from Myrtle Beach. The weather is almost spring-like, which reminds me that it will actually be spring in about two months.  Hence, the reason for this post.

Listen up, don’t be one of the many that waits until spring to get in shape for spring. If you want to make a drastic improvement to your physical appearance and well-being it starts now. Look at it this way: If you wanted to get in shape for a marathon, would you wait until the day of the marathon to start training? Sounds crazy doesn’t it? Yet and still, plenty of guys flood the health clubs once the weather warms up. Why? Because they start thinking about looking good without a shirt or in a tank top. The problem is that since the warm weather is already here they want to look like a superstar yesterday. Now an unrealistic expectation has been set, which usually leads to disappointment followed by quitting.

Don’t do that to yourself. Be smart and start putting in your time now. That way once April or May gets here, you’ll already be in the game. If you need some help jumpstarting your fitness program, sign up for the Soul Food Fit Club. It’s free and there’s plenty in there to help you (including a beast of a workout program).  Until next time….
