why is it at this time of year (December) all the supposed fitness bloggers and subject matter experts 'harp' on about the 5 best exercises to keep weight off, the 1 secret to weight loss at christmas time.
Its ridiculous in this day and age to think that any with access to the internet and the overwhelming wealth of information didn't realise that the salted caramel pudding you are putting in your face isn't going to make you fat.
The equation, incase you forgot is simple, energy out must be greater than energy in.
End of story.
Beyond the fitness realm there is so much more going on in peoples lives than simply looking skinny or hot. There are countless, boys, girls, women and men all over Sydney focused on how amazing they can look. It may very well stand up as being an indicator of success and having found balance in our life. But on a global or world scale where do these first world issues play a part in self realization and being of service to others.
This is not a stand up argument, it is perhaps a pointless and weak observation through personal struggles to genuinely care about getting my body to a point where I have got rid of every pleasure in my life to parade it down the street.
In the wellness realm the main idea is to establish harmony with ones addictions, flaws and struggles. Harmony by way of dissolving or accepting one's self for the perceived misbehaviours outlined by fitness gurus.
It's all just a matter of opinion in the end anyway but narrow minded conservative media still portray a skinnier and skinnier self to equate happiness amidst all of the global issues of poverty, war, global warming, refugee migration. Its so much easier to turn a blind eye to all of these issues because none of us can immediately fix any of them! But haven't we fitness buffs already learnt that its starts within.
