It's not about punishment but enjoying to feel resistance in the forces of nature.

It's not about punishment but enjoying to feel resistance in the forces of nature.
- KozmoNau7 9y agoParaphrasing from Henry Rollins: The iron doesn't lie. 200lbs will always be 200lbs, and that's a nice constant to rely on. Taking it even further, exercising for me is all about making my everyday life easier. Being stronger than average means I have a much easier time opening jars, taking down kitchen machines from the top of the cupboard, moving around furniture and countless other things that people do all the time. I started out not even being able to do a single pushup, and I felt like a fat slob (because that's what I was). Now I'm stronger and fitter and everything physical is just so much easier. I'm still not at my goal of getting rid of my beer gut, but so much better than where I used to be. I can run up stairs now, I couldn't even imagine trying to lug myself up the stairs at work if I weighed 200kg.
