Since I started incorporating fitness into my regular life routine, I have met people along the way who have felt the same passion I have about leading a healthy lifestyle. I would like to call these people, and also my friends, Fitness Junkies.
Now, I am not using “junkies” in a negative way. I am using Junkie in the way it is described in the Merriam-Webster Dictionary:
“A person who derives inordinate pleasure from or who is dependant on something”

I would have to say that I NEED fitness in my life. I am dependant on it to help me live and maintain a higher level of physical health and energy, and to feel better about my life. And I honestly will admit that I do get “inordinate pleasure” working out. There is no better feeling knowing that I have accomplished a physical fitness goal that I set for myself. I have decided to dedicate my free time and help to my fellow Fitness Junkies of the real world and virtual world. I want to inspire and motivate people who need that little extra support to live and maintain a better lifestyle.
