Motivation...

Sometimes, a few well-written words is all it takes to make me want to get out there and exercise or start fishing through my cupboards and throwing out all the crappy empty-calorie foods...

Personal trainer Sonia Ulrich has written 10 fitness tips that make me want to do just that. Go read them in full at her vox blog: Fit Tips that are Actually Useful and Not Lame. Really!

Here's the recap:
1. If it feels good, do it!
2. If it doesn't feel good, don't do it!
3. Find a fitness activity and set that as your goal.
4. Everything counts.
5. Don't beat yourself up -- literally or figuratively.
6. The deleted 11th commandment: Ladies, thou shalt not "bulk up."
7. Strength training to lose weight? You bet your sweet ass!
8. Turn yourself into Maria Von Trapp, baby!
9. What should you eat? Food! Duh!!
10. You don't have to change, just be aware.

The recap is more for my reference; do yourself a favour and read them in full.
