It is important we take care of our bodies so we can live long, vibrant, active and a healthy life. That is why in today’s session I would love to talk about your greatest fear, reason why you haven’t started out on that fitness journey or maybe why you stopped after a few months trial. Setting aside time to exercise can be a huge challenge for most of us , sometimes we find ourselves starting out awesomely well only to give up after 3 to 4 trials. All effort to start again proves abortive.  We sometimes find an excuse that’s quite cheap and lame “the I don’t have time syndrome”.

Not everyone desires to be on the weight loss journey and in truth everyone got diverse fitness goals. Funny how when I try to preach the importance of engaging in physical, activity to relatively slim, skinny individuals they make a joke out of the whole preaching exercise . You hear stuffs like “ ohh no if I exercise I will disappear” or “ooh coach I have 6 packs even without exercise” and so they just prefer to eat up in the bid to add some weight   …. Hollup geng!! What you do not know is that you can gain weight with exercise and some great nutrition advice. I do not want to bore you with a lot of scientific jargon but lets start by saying if you are below a BMI of 18.5 , that’s been underweight and sure if its not a health related problem then it simply means you are not getting adequately nourished , genetics, or you might even be getting so much o...
