Work your heart to use your heart


Sometimes we need to ask the big questions.  You know, like why we are here, how it all happened, and who left only coffee ice cream in the freezer.  Some of those, anyway.

The big questions help us figure out the little stuff, even if we never come to a real conclusion on the cosmic purpose of it all.  Most of us probably don’t think that we are here to work 9 to 5 making widgets, or to do the laundry, or to take out the trash, or to solve for x.  Maybe those things are necessary, but they are not the point.

Fitness, for most of us, is not the point.  Fitness is just a way to give us more resources to do the things that are the point, whether that is cuddling up with the family on Saturday mornings or taking the dogs to the park or helping Grandma sort old photos.  We do fitness efficiently so we have time for other stuff.


Let’s keep it simple.  Do some cardio.  Lift some weights.  Stretch.  Meditate a few minutes.  Then get on with the good stuff.
