What Motivated Me to Blog About My Health

I was asked to make a video explaining what motivated me to start blogging about my health. It’s pretty simple really so I grabbed the video camera and made a quick video to blog it up. Enjoy! What motivates you?

    Family is a great motivator! I want to stay healthy for my fam too. I have a great wife and a little girl due March 3, 2009. I want to be around for both of them for a long time!

    What motivates me? : remembering how hard it was being injured.
    When you don’t have the ability to drive a car, or push yourself up off the floor because you are injured… being healthy is pretty damn awesome.
    I stay healthy because I want to be prepared.
    Chance favors the prepared mind.

    You’re being a hell of a role model for her. Congrats.

  4. Sweet video man! Just found your blog today, and Im subscribing now.

    My motivation comes from proving people wrong and showing people who dont believe in me that I can do it.

  5. It’s my family which motivates me to stay healthy. We have a son (11 y.) and two dogs. They also keep me going πŸ˜‰

  6. Family is a big motivator for me. I want to set an example for my kids while they are young so they can avoid the mistakes that I made.

    That and I want to see my abs again, I miss them πŸ™

  7. Definitely family that motivates me to stay healthy, and just like steve just said, i want to see my abs as well πŸ™‚

  8. I’d have to say that the results motivate me. And also little changes like clothes feeling baggy, my ring feeling loose, needing to put a new hole in my belt.

    Take care,
    Andrew

      Hi Andrew. I love when I try an old shirt on and it fits baggy. Or when my jeans are too baggy. That is such an awesome feeling.

    family is the best motivation for anything releted to good change, if not for you, then for your family..love your families and change for them.
