16 INSPIRATIONAL fitnesss recollections: That will have YOU chomping at the bit ... for your OWN workout!

This morning, as I chatted with a lady from Shanghai (a high powered lawyer of all things, hehe) my brain - and MEMORY - went into overdrive.

We were talking about life - and workouts - and bodyweight exercise - and the conversation soon got around to LIFE - again.

"I wake up at 6 A.M.", she stated. "I get so much more done!"

And in true form, she sent me a picture of her day - neatly planned out - almost as if it was on an Excel spreadsheet, planned out right down to the last minute - - and coming from a lawyer, that doesn't sound out of place either!

Now, I'm NOT much of a one for early mornings, although I HAVE been in the past - most commonly when I was climbing the hill at the wee hours of the morning.

Let me tell you, slogging up that hill was NO joke at 530 AM in the morning - especially during COLD and DESERTED winters - so deserted and DARK that it would be me and my trust phone torch - - and perhaps an oldie or two "Angel of the City" blaring out to keep me company for a while, hehe.

I got some of the best workouts in - of my LIFE at that time - and I still remember EACH and every one of those numerous workouts, strange as it might sound!

And I still remember EACH and every one of my workouts when I was in college - and the FEELING behind them.

I still remember climbing up a hill in POURING weather that most wouldn't even consider going out in.

I still remember ... ah, but this is the entire point of me writing THIS - and telling you THIS!!

Just writing these tales - and recollections - got me so fired up that I literally pounded out a 100 pushups right there in my study -right after writing about a 15000 words or so (give or take) - and if this inspires me - a VETERAN when it comes to fitness and working out - I can just imagine what it will do to you, my friend.

If you've got a pulse - just reading all this will inspire you like nothing else!

If you're overweight - just READING about how I went out there and did it - - day by day - - rain, sun or shine - or hail, on occasion, hehe - - will give you JUST the boost you need!

As my friend Marc once sagely said "I think you're great at motivating people".

And I am - - and I enjoy doing it - - which is of course the reason I write my daily emails and newsletters - and do everything else I do on a daily basis.

When I put FEELING (and indeed, when YOU put feeling) into my words and actions is when I perform best - and so will YOU, my friend.

So will YOU - as you literally FEEL the emotion pouring off my words.

As you're literally "there" with me, for instance, as I climb up the hill LATE at night - - or perhaps meet the old man in China I've met in the late afternoons!

You'll feel me "breathing fire" - - so much so that YOU might well feel it too!!

You'll BE THERE with me as I psyched up for that final climb.

You'll be there with me, all those years ago, as yours truly went for a swim with his grandfather - at 430 AM in the morning, no less.

Did any of that inspire you? I bet it did - and while all of this probably paved the way for my own fitness routines and indeed, LOVE for exercise ... it will for you too when you read it!
