My mom subtly encouraged me to do her VHS aerobics routine alongside her when I was a kid, but with no pressure. I was therefore more open to the idea of trying out weightlifting in high school. I was then more open to checking out a gym membership (or three) in my 20s. I accordingly found it easier to shell out for a home weight bench & stationary bike in my 30s.

After a (typical) February backslide, I finally got my first workout all month done this morning, it's the best I've felt in weeks. Fortunately I'm still in better shape than I was a year ago. The benefits become increasingly clearer over time. I often quit for longer than I should, but I keep coming back. Anyway, thanks, Mom!
