Dope shyt, b.:wow:

This snow fukking up my daily early morning routine of shooting hoops for 45 mins and then working out.:beli:
For a lot of us, it's winter and it's cold.

If you can't get to a gym, get some warm clothes. Layer up. Hat, gloves, get your steps in.

We have to start treating exercise as a non-negotiable.


Cold weather should not be an excuse to get that work in.

:ufdup:

I knocked out a light 5k this morning and the wind chill had it feeling 20 degrees. I was good after that first mile. :wow:

More people are working out now then they ever have.
True but there's still plenty of mfs making excuses and not working out.

I want to get rid of the stigma, the propaganda, the lies and motivate and inspire people to get moving.

You don't have to be dedicated, structured, tough, disciplined, built different, obsessed, or have to make humongous changes overnight. Even if it means walking to the end of your block and back for 7 days, then doing it twice for a week, the. Eventually walking around the block once and going back home or doing 5 pushups a day for one week, then 7, then 10. Start small, working your way up and before you know it, 3 months, 6 months you'll have made incredible progress.

Ct Fletcher- if you can't do what you want, do what you can.

Can't run? Jog. Can't jog? Walk.

Theres no valid excuse or justification for doing nothing, do something anything. Create consistency.

Great post breh.

I stay in south Louisiana and our people act like they are immune to running. Not all of our people down here..but most. We have a fitness test thread for my fraternity and my peers act like I am crazy for running 20-25 miles a week when in reality that really ain’t shyt to what some real runners do. White folks on the other hand got that shyt on lock down here. Matter of fact when I lived close to LSU the amount of white women running was nothing but motivation for me but I really wished I saw more sisters or shyt even other brehs out there.

I dont really know that many sedentary people. If anything most of them are mid 30s and just fell out of playing basketball, football, running, lifting with the excuse "ahh man I gotta work" "I can't do it no more, im not as good as I used to be" "mannn I got these kids"

If you have kids there's no reason one cant play basketball with them, or go on a run or walk or bike ride with them. There's no reason you can't challenge your kid to a pushup competition.

Just driving them to basketball practice and picking them up or watching them, or watching them shoot hoops at the park or in the driveway isn't active parenting they benefit a hell of a lot more by you joining them.

But people don't want to hear that. It doesn't have to be serious, we aren't super heroes or training to make league or the Olympics, just be active.

I always encourage people to do something we gotta dispell the narrative that it's hard or not everyone can do it. Like @Remote said, it's so damn good for your mental health.

You'll sleep better, feel better, head will be more clear. There may be more mental and emotional fitness than cardio, weight loss or strength training. The feeling of accomplishment and achieving goals is really second to none.
