Stubborn as a Mule? Maybe It’s Time to Give a Damn About Your Health

Stubborn as a Mule? Maybe It’s Time to Give a Damn About Your Health 

Let’s be real—sometimes you want the result but not the work. You romanticize the idea of being fit, strong, and healthy, but the sweating, the sore muscles, and the time commitment? Yeah, that part doesn’t sound so sexy. And so, your fitness and nutrition goals go by the wayside—again.

But here’s the hard truth: Your body doesn’t care about your excuses. The longer you put it off, the harder it gets. And while you might not be “feeling the pull” to get moving now, your future self is begging you to give a damn.

As fitness professionals we hear a lot of excuses about why people don’t make changes—or worse, they wait until it’s way past time to start reversing their health issues. But why wait until the damage is done?

If you’re like me (or many of our health-conscious clients), you probably can’t help but notice what people put in their grocery carts or on their plates—often without a second thought. Real change isn’t just about knowing better; it’s about unlearning old habits that have been ingrained as coping mechanisms or simply from lack of awareness.

Why Strength Training is Worth the Effort

Even if you don’t love working out, the results are undeniable:
✔ Longevity – Strong muscles keep you moving and independent as you age
✔ Immune Health – Regular training boosts your body’s ability to fight illness
✔ Independent Living – You don’t want to rely on someone else to open jars, get off the floor, or carry groceries, do you?
✔ Mobility & Injury Prevention – Move better, hurt less, live more
✔ Stress & Mental Health – Exercise literally makes your brain function better and helps manage anxiety

How to Finally Get It Done

🚀 Make it easier on yourself – Schedule workouts like appointments you can’t skip
🚀 Find an accountability partner – A trainer or fitness buddy keeps you showing up
🚀 Set a no-BS goal – Focus on consistency, not perfection
🚀 Do the minimum, but do it – Even twice a week is enough to see major changes

If you’re done giving all your f*s** to everything except your health, let’s make it happen. Start training, get stronger, and stop making excuses.
