Fitness Friday

One of my favorite shows on television is The Biggest Loser.  I love watching these people arrive with a dream in their hearts, the drive and courage to start this journey on national television, and the desire to become healthier to benefit not just themselves, but their loved ones.

Furthermore, I love watching their struggle (no, I'm not evil) and their eventual success.  I don't know about you, but seeing fit and trim men and women performing great physical fetes is not something that gets my adrenaline pumping; watching someone who is "normal" or "average" is much more gratifying to me.  I know I'm sounding awful right now and if you know my heart you know that's not what I want.  What I'm trying to say is: Watching someone start at point A and fight to get to point B and reach their goal is extremely satisfying to me.  It encourages me on a level that no workout DVD can.

Earlier this week I threw this video out there and really made myself vulnerable.
I didn't say a whole lot about it for a few reasons; 1. I was nervous.  I've never video taped myself, let alone broadcasted a video of myself on the internet for everyone to judge see.  2.  I took the video with my laptop so obvi its not perfect videographer skills there.  3.  I wasn't sure if this is something anyone in the world would even want to see.  I'm no doctor or personal trainer.  I'm just a girl with a heart for health and fitness and I want to encourage others to take care of their bodies and souls as well.

If you didn't see the video, please, watch and give me some feedback.  I know that if I were to come across a blog like this, I would instantly follow and watch the workouts.  I don't want to feel like the only person struggling with healthy eating habits, unwanted weight, or physical challenges.  I want all of us to band together and gain confidence from one another.  So, with that said, I have joined forces with Kelly of Honor, Courage, and Commitment for Fitness Friday.
