The only thing that keeps you afraid is yourself overcome yourself to do anything.

Endurance

Your only as weak, as you think you are. Believe that your limits does not stop where its at, but grows to new heights. Push yourself with every struggle that comes, to surpass and achieve new limits.

Damage

We poison ourselves by consuming products without knowing what we eat. Say no to chemically enhanced foods and go organic. Organic products digest more smoothly and are more healthy choice to choose from. Remember having to much of one thing can be harmful to your body.

Captive

You are a prisoner of your own body until you make the choice and act on those action to make a change. A change to live better. A change to eat better. A change to feel good about yourself. The time where you can say i use to look like that but not no more. To scream to the world "I made a change".

Breaking Point

When you think your at your limits, you can push yourself even further. With the will and determination you can surpass what you can achieve to another level of breaking point. You got to believe to achieve to conceive.

Able

You have a choice to get fit get strong. That makes you able to do so. The choice to make decisions on your life for better or for worse. The free will to push yourself past limits on which you thought you had. You are able to achieve if you believe.

resistance

The less weights you use and the more reps to equal the same overall workout will provide better toning with less weights, and more Repetition will provide more sleeker toning of muscle and fat.

Temptation

Temptation, are you gonna risk all your effort for a fatty substance, like a burger or ice cream. You can eat but remember to make the effort to burn that excess calorie consumption. Only you can make the choice of giving up or push yourself "beyond".

Control

Be in control, you have the choice to quit or to continue. push yourself, learn your physiology limits. Be positive to stay in the game.

carbohydrate

Watch out for to much carbohydrate. Carbohydrate turns to glucose and then to sugar then finally turning to fat.
Carbohydrate are easy to digest but will slow down the metabolic rate very quickly. Consume protein, the protein enzymes takes a few days to break down causing you metabolic rate to slowly increase, causing a higher metabolism.

A carbohydrate is an organic compound with the empirical formula Cm(H2O)n, that is, consists only of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, with it in a 1:2:1 atom ratio. Carbohydrates can be viewed as hydrates of carbon, hence their name. Structurally however, it is more accurate to view them as polyhydroxy aldehydes and ketones. The term is most common in biochemistry, where it is a synonym of saccharide. The carbohydrates (saccharides) are divided into four chemical groupings: monosaccharides, disaccharides, oligosaccharides, and polysaccharides. In general, the monosaccharides and disaccharides, which are smaller (lower molecular weight) carbohydrates, are commonly referred to as sugars. The word saccharide comes from the Greek word σάκχαρον (sákkharon), meaning "sugar". While the scientific nomenclature of carbohydrates is complex, the names of the monosaccharides and disaccharides very often end in the suffix -ose. For example, blood sugar is the monosaccharide glucose, table sugar is the disaccharide sucrose, and milk sugar is the disaccharide lactose (see illustration).

Carbohydrates perform numerous roles in living things. Polysaccharides serve for the storage of energy (e.g., starch and glycogen) and as structural components (e.g., cellulose in plants and chitin in arthropods). The 5-carbon monosaccharide ribose is an important component of coenzymes (e.g., ATP, FAD, and NAD) and the backbone of the genetic molecule known as RNA. The related deoxyribose is a component of DNA. Saccharides and their derivatives include many other important biomolecules that play key roles in the immune system, fertilization, preventing pathogenesis, blood clotting, and development.

In food science and in many informal contexts, the term carbohydrate often means any food that is particularly rich in the complex carbohydrate starch (such as cereals, bread and pasta) or simple carbohydrates, such as sugar (found in candy, jams and desserts).

Structure

Formerly the name "carbohydrate" was used in chemistry for any compound with the formula Cm(H2O)n. Following this definition, some chemists considered formaldehyde CH2O to be the simplest carbohydrate, while others claimed that title for glycolaldehyde. Today the term is generally understood in the biochemistry sense, which excludes compounds with only one or two carbons.

Natural saccharides are generally built of simple carbohydrates called monosaccharides with general formula (CH2O)n where n is three or more. A typical monosaccharide has the structure H-(CHOH)x(C=O)-(CHOH)y-H, that is, an aldehyde or ketone with many hydroxyl groups added, usually one on each carbon atom that is not part of the aldehyde or ketone functional group. Examples of monosaccharides are glucose, fructose, and glyceraldehyde. However, some biological substances commonly called "monosaccharides" do not conform to this formula (e.g., uronic acids and deoxy-sugars such as fucose), and there are many chemicals that do conform to this formula but are not considered to be monosaccharides (e.g., formaldehyde CH2O and inositol (CH2O)6).

The open-chain form of a monosaccharide often coexists with a closed ring form where the aldehyde/ketone carbonyl group carbon (C=O) and hydroxyl group (-OH) react forming a hemiacetal with a new C-O-C bridge.

Monosaccharides can be linked together into what are called polysaccharides (or oligosaccharides) in a large variety of ways. Many carbohydrates contain one or more modified monosaccharide units that have had one or more groups replaced or removed. For example, deoxyribose, a component of DNA, is a modified version of ribose; chitin is composed of repeating units of N-acetylglucosamine, a nitrogen-containing form of glucose.

"It is not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, if he wins, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat."
Roosevelt

"The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds."

Stick to it

Be committed to make life long changes for yourself. The more you are committed the more endurance you'll have to push yourself.

Ways to stay committed:

Work out with a friend The "buddy system" works with exercise like it does with so many other things in life. Mutual support can help you continue on when you feel like giving up. When your exercise routine gets boring or overwhelming, having a friend to workout with can add just enough variety to give you the push you need to keep at it.

Find someone you know that already has an established workout routine, and they can help you stay committed to your program.

You can also find someone to work out with that struggles with sticking to their workout routine, and you can encourage each other.

Run together, cycle together, walk together, or just meet at the gym to work out together.

Whoever you can find, use them as an accountability partner to spur you on when you aren't feeling particularly motivated.

If you can't find a human friend to workout with, walk or run with your dog! You need the exercise and it's good for the dog too. Don't have a dog? "Borrow" someone else's!

Change up your routine is also a great way to be motivated

Look out for preservatives and MSG(Monosodium glutamate)

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a flavor enhancer commonly added to Chinese food, canned vegetables, soups and processed meats. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has classified MSG as a food ingredient that's "generally recognized as safe," the use of MSG remains controversial. For this reason, when MSG is added to food, the FDA requires that it be listed on the label.

MSG has been used as a food additive for decades. Over the years, the FDA has received many anecdotal reports of adverse reactions to foods containing MSG. These reactions — known as MSG symptom complex — include:
Headache
Flushing
Sweating
Facial pressure or tightness
Numbness, tingling or burning in face, neck and other areas
Rapid, fluttering heartbeats (heart palpitations)
Chest pain
Nausea
Weakness

However, researchers have found no definitive evidence of a link between MSG and these symptoms. Researchers acknowledge, though, that a small percentage of people may have short-term reactions to MSG. Symptoms are usually mild and don't require treatment. The only way to prevent a reaction is to avoid foods containing MSG.

MSG will change your body for the worse and very fattening if always consumed with food.

Remember to be cautious of the foods and beverages you eat it could be your last.

To "get fit get strong" you need to take the initiative to making healthy and productive choices in your life. To make small compromises in your daily life. Watch what you eat, eat small portions over time, consume Gatorade, Powerade, Life Water, water or flavored water instead of soda, and sugar packed drinks. Go fresh squeezed juice instead of concentrated. Eat cooked meals instead of instant noodles or packed foods. By eating healthy, its a step to getting fit.
