Calling all fitness gurus, fitness experts, fitness guru/expert wannabees, people who want to get fit…everyone.

So why am I putting out an all points bulletin for anyone interested in fitness?  Well because, I need your help.  I consider myself right up there with many of the other experts and yet I also consider myself a wannabee fit person.  Anyone who knows me or has read some of my blog posts will realize that while I have lots of good and useful information, I am a regular girl fighting a constant battle with food and I consider myself, always, a work in progress.

So I have to admit that sometimes I just don’t feel like working out – pure and simple.  Call it lazy or loss of motivation or whatever you want.  You start out with great intensions – your into your workouts, you fit them in no matter what, you feel really on track.  Then all of the sudden, it’s like someone put their foot on the brakes.  This great motivation suddenly comes to a standstill.  So here I was all winter long at my goal weight, working out hard to make some changes in my physique – then we are a week away from what I call the start of summer – I know officially summer doesn’t start until June 21st.  But for me and maybe alot of you, summer starts Memorial weekend.  My kids will be out of school, our pool is open, we will be having a ton of people over the Saturday for a Memorial party (and UFC fights)

With the start of swimsuit season you would think I would be terribly motivated to keep on keepin on with my workouts.  But this past weekend I didn’t workout at all – I didn’t even take the dogs for a walk – and the weather was stunning.  Well today is Monday – and with no workout this weekend I put my workout clothes on – took my kids to school, stopped in for a quick tan and then home to workout.  But then I sat at my computer for a second ready to go through email – when I said those words to myself – “I don’t feel like working out today”.  Really?  Are you kidding me – you are actually in your workout clothes and your going to blow off working out – seriously?

That’s when, as I am going through my email I come across an invitation to workout from a guy I know only through the computer.  Never talked to him before, but I know who he is.  That was the birth of this post.  That one little email got me down to my basement and pushing play on my workout dvd.  I had a great workout – worked super hard – my shoulders are still crying a little (in a good way).  Thank goodness for that email – it got me off my butt.  Instead of “I don’t feel like working out”  I said “Alright, I guess I will go do it”.  And man am I glad I did – because once I pushed play I was feeling good – mentally and physically.

So that is why I want as many people as possible to be a Witness to My Fitness.  And I would like to be a Witness to Your Fitness.  I don’t care who you are, we all need a little push in the right direction every so often.  Sometimes just a quick message is all it takes.  “Hey are you working out today”? or “Hey did you work out today”? or “Hey wanna workout today”?

So will you help me - keep me motivated?  I am not sure what way will work best – maybe you could twitter me a message, comment on my blog, send me an email, get a free membership to my online gym and pick me as a workout buddy and send me an invitation to workout.  Any way shape or form that you want to participate in Witness to My Fitness would be great.  I promise I will do the same for you as well.

So are you in?
