FITNESS TIP OF THE DAY:

When you fall off the program, get back up and start again.

Any fitness goal, whether it’s to lose weight, shed inches, get stronger, or run farther, requires a lot of hard work, dedication, and determination to achieve.  The journey is rarely one without bumps, bruises and “detours” along the way.  When adversity strikes (which is inevitable) it’s important to see the big picture and stay focused on the end goal.
