This statement is true for a million interpersonal situations, kids and adults alike.
But, for our purpose [a fitness & healthy lifestyle], here’s our interpretation…”Find friends that are like-minded.” Healthy, positive, fitness motivated and active people. Smoking, drinking, over-eating, inactive people will make for seriously bad company, especially if you want to stay on the healthy track. You want the people in your life to inspire you and hold you accountable for a healthy lifestyle. If your friends are in a rush to get to the local pub every evening, it will be difficult to get yourself to the gym. If McDonald’s is their lunch of choice, eating right could become a challenge. You see my point.
Keep in mind, even the littlest of choices you make everyday play a huge roll in the direction of your life. And each and every choice you make is substantially influenced by the people you keep company. Choose good company.
On the other hand….” Be good company yourself!” Those you choose to have around you, and more importantly, who choose to be around you, deserve the best from you. Be the same positive role model you expect from others.
Simply put…Be the kind of friend you’d want to have.
From a more serious point, if there’s anyone, who you consider close in your life, that does not lift you up, inspire you, motivate you, support you and love you completely…release them. Life’s too short to waste time with toxic people.
Be well.

PLEASE READ -
Your current level of conditioning will determine how intense and how long you can maintain each cardio and exercise workout.
Cardio workouts – It is your goal to control your level of intensity so you get to and maintain your heart rate at a desired level. You should never exceed the maximum rate.
Resistance workouts – You do not want your heart rate to exceed your maximum rate at any time during your workout.
We suggest wearing a heart rate monitor. It’s a great tool to maximize your workout efforts. Taking your pulse while running or exercising is not easy.
If you are new to exercise, it is strongly recommended that you consult your physician to get clearance and determine your ideal ‘target exercise heart rate’ and ‘maximum heart rate’. If you are experienced in exercise, this is something you likely already know. But if not, this HEART RATE CALCULATOR link will take you to a calculator.
***WHAT TO KNOW…
1. Your RESTING heart rate.
2. Your MAX heart rate.
3. Your TARGET exercise heart rate
!!!Remember, if at any time during your workout, you feel pain or dizziness you should stop immediately as seek medical attention!!!
