CWP Fitness: Don't be Afraid to Start

 

So this past Monday, just when I was entering the house from work, my younger sister started talking without even allowing me settle down; "Onyinye (my native name) abeg, I want to start working out o" what!!! LMFAO...ROTFL....LOL....kwakwakwakwakwa....I mean, this is someone that was the olori of 'em mockers when I started working out newly, so you can imagine my amazement and how hilarious I found it. After laughing to my heart content (all the while, she was just staring at me), I asked her why she suddenly became interested in workout and she told me that someone (a fellow girl) whom she met that day thought that her 'flat tummy' (she actually has a flat tummy but floated when she eats, you get?) wasn't flat enough and advised her to workout. Dear Lawd!!! this is something I have been preaching to her for months and she wouldn't listen but just one day with a total stranger and she can't even wait to start working out (even Jesus said a prophet is not accepted in his own house right?)....

I was happy because its to my advantage too, like I just found myself a workout partner. Yeah! it is more effective and fun if you workout with a partner but this girl just 'fall my hands completely, ahan!' She couldn't do up to 20 squats, she did just 5 regular crunches and stopped, come and see bicycle crunches na...you will laugh tire, I didn't even bother her with other workouts cos she was already sweating like Christmas goat. Yesterday, we tried again and I noticed that she has improved a little, I was now feeling like a fitness trainer. lol.

I hardly share my personal encounters on here but I couldnt help but share this one. Do not be afraid/ashamed to start working out, just like every new venture you are starting up in life, people will definitely mock you, laugh at you, criticize you...only a few will encourage you (that's if you even get any encouragement at all) but never lose faith. When ever you are tempted to stop, remember why you started, believe me when they start seeing you succeed, they will run to you wanting to know how you achieved your success then you will have the last laugh and na last laff dey sweet past I swear.

If today is your first time on the blog, this is CWP Fitness one of the segments on CWP blog. My major focus is flat tummy cos I dont have much body fat, so I'm not looking to loose weight but I try as much as possible to share other aspect of fitness and healthy leaving. I do hope you will enjoy your stay here. **smiles** Welcome!!!

Last week, we started a 1 month challenge "No Late night eating challenge". How has it been? did you start at all? Have you cheated? **side eye** How many times did you cheat? Have you noticed any changes? Oya start sharing your testimonies/confessions.

My confession: I cheated on Friday ** bends head in shame** I went for a birthday party and was lost in the fun....I know my excuse is plain stupid, please forgive me it will never happen again. 

Sorry for the lengthy post dearies, you know this is not my style and thanks for always sticking around.

Much love from PAT.
