#fitness

Picture me: about 39 years old, didn’t do much sports throughout my life, perhaps a few football games, squash or tennis with friends. Did start a bit of strength training in 2019 and some results are visible, but nothing spectacular.

I loved the idea of hikes and nature, but the idea of going for a 4 hour hike appalled me.

I loved the idea of looking good, but the idea of the pulling weights at the gym also discouraged me.

I loved the idea of staying healthy, but the idea of running every day seemed not only counter-productive but also contrary to what I have been raised to believe: “one should not run after buses and women, there will always be another”. I extrapolated that to “one should not run”. Smart, right?

But I always had this idea on the back of my mind that I want to be healthy, full of energy and fit.
