All year long we look forward to summer. We fantasize about looking and feeling our best at the beach or pool. But once it’s here, what else is there to look forward to?

It’s been said that comparison is the thief of joy. We need to steal it back. Don’t feel bad about yourself because you think other people can lift heavier weights or run on the treadmill at a higher speed. If you see someone working out next to you at the gym, smile and encourage them! By liberating yourself from expectations and pressure, you can start your fitness revolution. Working out should contribute to your pursuit of happiness!
