Many people over look the value of their health. These days you have to pay a little extra to be healthy. Good quality healthy food is more expensive, most people have to pay for memberships to some sort of gym or you may be like us and like to do Fitness Kickboxing and Jiu jitsu as your Healthy hobby. My theory is pick something you like that way you stick to it longer. Either way you look at it, there is a cost. There is the money, the time, and there is quite a bit of sweat equity into it.
Now if you don’t decide to pick up a healthy hobby, there is another cost, and it is far from cheap. With that comes pain from being unhealthy and as you age the likelihood of this pain increases. If you don’t teach your kids how to cook and live a healthy lifestyle from an early age, they will most likely lead the unhealthy path. If you don’t eat your fruits and vegetables, you will be sick WAY more than somebody who does consume fruits and vegetables daily. The cost of being in your comfort zone,not challenging yourself, and just eating comfort food comes with a heavy price in the long run. You don’t look or feel your best. Medical Bills are quite a bit more pricey than a membership to a gym or a healthy bag of groceries.
Now, what is best to do is combine both exercise and diet for best results. Find something you like and stick with it. Lots of people find the gym routine boring and we are getting lots of people that are turning to martial arts for fitness instead. You learn how to defend yourself and torch calories away without even thinking about it.
You must find healthy alternatives to your favorite unhealthy foods. For example, at home,make a hamburger with lean ground beef, stacked with spinach leaves, 1 whole tomato slicing it in4 thick slices with fries fried in avocado oil. Bam, tastes good and your body can process that no problem and it will melt away easily into your next workout. Do not eat garbage fast food!! Clean Eating and a Healthy Active Hobby will change your life✊
So what are you going to do? PAY NOW OR PAY LATER?
