Quit Smoking Fast

Learning from other people's mistakes can save time, money, energy, and most importantly your health.

Take smoking for example.

Isabelle (my spouse) asked me this question while driving up to St-Sauveur. How many people in India do you think die every month from a tobacco related illness?

Do you know?

I say 1000. She says more.

5000. More

25 000. More.

WHAAAT?!

Try 70 000.

70 000 people die every month. That's the size of some Canadian cities!

I always ask myself this same question when doing or starting
anything: "What's this gonna do for me if I keep it up for the next 30 years?"

Well that's one question you won't need to ask when wondering if smoking is any good for you.

You DIE.

And not peacefully.

Those few minutes of pleasure when smoking turn into months of pain and suffering when you're on that hospital bed.

How much evidence does one need to realize smoking is BAD for you?

Let's ask the same question about strength and flexibility training. Fast forward 30 years from now.

How will you be feeling? How many quality years will you add to your life?

If you're already training you know the answer to that question.

If you're not, the sooner you do (start), you'll realize it doesn't take 30 years to feel good, recharged, and in control of WHAT you let IN your body.

Your body is NOT a trash can.

If you owned a million dollar race horse would you feed it chips, fast food, and cigarettes. Would you keep it locked inside sitting on a couch watching TV?

Why is it okay to do that with our own body?

Decide NOW that it's not okay.

The first step is to start training with one of our strength training kits found right here:

P.S. Realize what you're worth. You're capable of many a' great things when you sprinkle a little bit of discipline to your life.
