Sitting, snacking, slouching, sipping, and staring. Oh the 5 S's. What does the average look like? Sitting on the couch or their favorite comfy chair. Snacking on yummies and gummies of the sort that does nothing positive for your health. Of course, slouching with a drooping, headache inducing posture. Sipping on some sugar water or the poison that starts with an "A." Only in moderation. Staring blankly as is if in a trance at the screen that is here to entertain you for hours on end. Negative news, risqué shows, talking heads, or watching everyone else's moves on social media. Repeat daily. Wash and repeat. I wonder what the martians think of us?
What's the point of life? Many cry out. I have no clue IF the bulk of your day looks like that!
This is the average existence of many people. Go on ahead if that's your style, but I can tell you there is a better way. Feed your mind with real wisdom from God Himself by reading the Good Book (The Holy Bible), pump some iron, and eat frequent healthy meals. A healthy meal is high in protein, some clean carbs, and essential fats. You're starting to take off! Your mood swings will go away getting off the sugar land rollercoaster. Your muscles will start sneaking out of your layer of "insulation." It's August in Texas, you don't need any insulation anyways! What's that? A smile? You will even smile and laugh more from nourishing your mind and body. Turns out, coming out of the worldly trance has many benefits.
You get to grab barbells and dumbbells. Hoist them here and there. Feel that? It's called discipline. Body fat screams and cries. Some body fat will hold on tight and fight, but it's stay is limited. It's check out time and the stubborn lipids get zapped. Like highly polished precious metals your muscles shine. Yay! The fat is gone. Your body is lighter and much more efficient. You stand taller. What's that a new hobby? Sure why not!? I feel great and have tons of energy. Since you aren't staring at screens all night, you can actually go to sleep. Partly from the blue light, but also from not being all charged up from the latest "news" that is designed to piss you off and keep you glued. Ideally, you will order that pizza too and that will increase their ad revenue. I tried rapping once.
Welcome to the big show. Congratulations you are one of the few! You charge into the gym to lift, burn, pump, and release your body and mind of life sucking stress. Small talk is lame anyways. It's a jolly good time moving weights around. I can't seem to get enough. You are on top of the world. Your veins are coursing with only the finest of nutrition. Your muscles begin to show. Isn't it crazy how building success with your personal fitness seeps into other areas of your life? You are learning a high level of discipline you can take to any arena. Career, school, sports, and even politics! Politics is easy.. lift like crazy and.. on second thought never mind just tell them what they want to hear.
I want to challenge you to take steps away from average. If the herd is doing it take a closer look and steer clear. We ain't average. Since you are reading this I know you are already way above average. Only the finest read the BBB blog. Don't let that average goop sneak into areas of your life. It ain't worth it! To me it's a no-brainer. Want to get fast food? No sir, I am happiest by myself with a can of tuna and whole grain bread. Let's go out and get slammed? No thanks, I'd rather drink a big water and if I am feeling really froggie, a protein shake. Let's go binge on <enter hyped up junk show name here> episodes? No way dude! Sorry can't make it. I gotta go binge lift some barbells. The average life ain't for me. How about you?
