welcome

Most of us are overworked, overly stressed and exhausted trying to manage our complex lives, and as a result our health and fitness suffers. Whether you’re single, or a parent of multiple kids, we all share the same hope (however illusionary) that one day we will get our bodies back in shape again, feel that incredible feeling that we all get when we do something magically athletic and experience that timeless sense of joy we all call Play.
Poof! Back to reality. Desk Job, long hours, aching back, lots of stress.
So, what is one to do, when we wake up and we’re confronted with the same questions:
How/Where do I begin? I want to feel good! But my lower back hurts, I have no energy and am bored to death with this decade long endless obsession with gerbil like machines that inhabit health and fitness centers every where. Moreover, I’m dazed and confused by the daily bombardment from men’s and women’s magazines, infomercials, and the local gym’s enticing membership offers.
But you and I both know that the last time we bought that slimming shake or ab slimmer or gym membership, our asses stayed flabby and our midsection did nothing but get bigger and never did we experience anything even closely resembling “mindful bliss.”
What does an earnest, overworked, and trapped athlete, have to do to experience some physical and emotional bliss?
Seems to me, there has never been a more pertinent time for a fun, smart and slightly different blog devoted to getting you (and your friends and family) moving again in interesting and sophisticated ways that you might never have thought were possible. Along the way, I will share ideas and test out products, all in the hope that you will learn how to become a happier, healthier and fitter you.
So welcome to the Everyday athlete blog as we embark on a journey to rediscover fitness… and help make you fit to play.
