This photo has been doing the rounds via facebook and twitter and popular blog sites. Just in case you havent seen it, here you go.

Love it!

I think we all get caught up on body image, we often fail to realise that when it comes down to it, it doesn’t, matter how you look but how you feel. Sure being skinny is a lot of people’s aspirations but what good is it if you can’t climb a set of stairs without getting puffed out or not able to hold your own body weight, or keep up chasing after your kids?

When you’re fit and strong it’s almost like you have obtained super powers (just go with it for a second). Things that used to be hard or that others find hard are easier, your energy lasts longer and you perform better.

That lady in the above photo is super lean… you don’t need to be big and bulky to be strong, you can be lean and stronger than the beefcakes on the benchpress!

Whatever your goals are, don’t lose sight of what really matters to your health.

Doesn’t that photo just make you want to go exercise? Let’s go! 🙂
