"I promise to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth."On today's episode of "To Tell the Truth," I'm going to fess up: I don't particularly enjoy exercising.
There, I said it!
In fact, I don't like it much at all. To me, it's just another chore. Something I need to get done, to check off my "to do" list. I liken it to doing dishes, laundry and cleaning toilets.
Necessary, but not particularly enjoyable.
Now, don't get me wrong. I THOROUGHLY enjoy the sense of accomplishment I experience AFTER the fact. And I REALLY enjoy the benefits I am experiencing from all my hard work. Just like I enjoy having a clean house and clean clothes to wear.
I'm just not one of those people that would ever aspire to run a marathon. I don't get my kicks from working up a sweat just because and I would never try to climb Mt Everest or criss-cross the country on a bike.
It could be that in the future when I have a body full of muscles I may come to really LIKE working out. Maybe I'll spend hour after hour at the gym, running circles around the city and going through workout DVD after workout DVD in my home just because I can't get enough.
(*Collapsing in a fit of giggles*)
I don't think that would ever happen. It's just not me.
But even though I don't enjoy workingout, I'm doing it anyway. Because if I am serious about getting fit and healthy, exercising is a necessary part of the process!
