Why I started....Greater things to come.



Why I started this journey.
07/03/2019

For years now I've been going along with what everyone considers the norm and I've found myself to be yearning for more. It's not only a desire to achieve more or earn more, but a desire to become more and to create a life for myself and those that I care about so much. This is my first step on that process and I hope that by exposing these feelings to the world that I can finally take the steps necessary to follow in so many other peoples', in chasing my dreams and passions.

What's this all about?

With this new blog I hope to create a resource of information that mothers, fathers, brothers, sisters, teachers, builders etc.. can follow for basic insights and informed research based opinions. 
In doing so, I hope to spread some of the wonderful things I have learned throughout my time in school, college and work. 
The primary focus will be on Physical Activity and the importance it plays in our everyday lives and I can't stress this importance enough! 
Some of the statistics and even public opinions around this topic are genuinely frightening so I really feel compelled to share what I know in a manner that is easy to understand and interesting to people of all ages. 

Why should you even listen to me? :) 

Well to put it simply, you shouldn't have to! Too many people are becoming unhappy nowadays doing jobs they dislike, hate or are simply sick of (like me). They are afraid to try something new and I know of many people who would much rather be pursuing a career in something they love but don't know how to get there. (like me) This can be a really frustrating and confusing time but trust me, we'll get through it.

If you haven't realised yet, I'm also one of these people and I know that there must be something bigger in store for me, otherwise I'll go mad. I have seen the effects of physical activity on some of the people closest to me and I know about the awe inspiring power it possesses. The only reason governments and companies aren't popping up and telling people about this is because, it makes absolutely no money. 

With this new blog I intend to document my own journey from a young relatively happy man (who has a lot to be thankful for) with a 'good' job and support structure around me, to a man who loves waking up in the morning because he knows he's in control of his life, he knows he's as healthy as can be and he knows that he is truly making a difference to others in his community. 

Be it at home, or online ;)

The ABC's of home exercise...

The ABC's of home exercise... What can we use to keep active at home?  Nowadays it has never been easier to exercise from home. The only problem is that many of us can't recognise the potential we have laying around us for some serious conditioning sessions.  So check out the first part of my list of useful exercises you can do with every day objects below. Chair: The Chair Dip:  Simply place your hands along the edge of the chair and stick your two feet out in front of you with only your heels touching the floor..  Slowly lower your body down in front of the chair. Once you have gone as far as you can go, push yourself back up with your hands.                                       To make this easier, bring your feet closer to you and have them flat on the ground. Chair Push-ups: Start by kneeling down on all fours in front of a c...

Why do we need to be physically active?

Welcome, Bienvenidos, Salut, Hola, Fáilte Why do we need to be physically active? As straight forward a question as this may seem, the majority of people nowadays can produce an answer somewhere along the lines of "it's good for you". A good start no doubt, but shouldn't we all be able to identify how, in what amount and when it's good for you?  If like me you think we should, then I invite you to learn at least one thing from todays blog.  The importance of physical activity (PA): PA is the cheapest type of preventative medicine we can find. It's true!!! PA can literally save your life. According to the World Health Organisation , approximately 3.2 million deaths each year are caused by physical in activity. That means that a lack of exercise and probably a host of other things such as bad diet, health conditions etc... (which are created by not exercising) literally killed all these people. To put that into context for you, that is like the...
