A very well written wake up call. It's pretty much exactly what I'm doing right now and I needed the motivation to make physical exertion a mandatory part of my daily life. Thanks for posting.
Thanks, as I've mentioned elsewhere - I am (possibly) alive right now because someone else took the time to write about this in their blog (the one I reached with Google). I feel obligated to help spread some additional awareness.
Like almost everybody else here, I've been meaning to get more exercise. I got a couple of exercise apps on my phone. I have an app to track my daily progress and one that tries to keep me accountable. I've bought shoes and clothes. I bought a rack, a barbell, 280 lbs of plates, a bunch of dumbbells, and a bench. I installed a pullup bar in my house. I bought a standup paddleboard and a new bicycle. I've done everything except actually exercise.
Your post has motivated me to actually stop preparing and start working. Thank you.
