KATE TALK SERIES: The Powerful benefits of working out

Hey Everyone,

I wanted to introduce a new series called Kate talks. This will be the first of many discussions where I will be discussing your questions as well as inspirational bits and gym motivation.

Today's Kate talk is the power of working out. 

It all started this week, when I noticed the wear and tear I was putting on my only pair of sneakers.

At first I was upset and found myself looking around at girls who were wearing lululemon or the newest nike sneakers. But I quickly realized that those material clothing items really don't mean anything. I'm not denying that these material items can't provide short term motivation, but for me they dont keep me going in the long run.

At the end of the day the clothing on my back is not pushing me through the last rep or the last minute of sprints.

It is my body that reflects the hard work that I have put in. No money can buy it, you cant just "inherit" it, or borrow it. You have to hold onto it with constant work. I find that my body is a reflection of the promises I make to myself. It signifies my discipline and self-respect. More importantly, it demonstrates patience, work ethic, and a pure passion.

When you find yourself getting caught in life's static, I find that weight lifting can be the best tool to keep you grounded. I hope it will bring you all of these powerful skills like it has given me.

Until next time....
-Kate
