Become Your
Own Fitness Guru!
3 Reasons to become a Fitness Guru
1. It feels
good to help people and there are so many out there right now who could use
some of yours. What is more precious to us than our bodies and health? When you
study and research health and fitness you empower yourself and give yourself
the tools to help people improve their lives and bodies and get in shape.
What an amazing gift that is!
2. A major
trend that I believe is going to sweep the western world, especially America,
is a “Do It Yourself” fitness attitude. This means that in
studying exercise science, nutrition, and basic physiology in your spare time,
you are preparing yourself to know the right things at the right time to
increase your personal value to society.
3. Economically
speaking, what the west is experiencing is a “Sickness and Disease” bubble, and
history proves that all bubbles pop. A transition is taking place where profits
are already shifting to preventative health and wellness
over junk food, medical bills, and petroleum throw away products. When the
fitness bubble really hits this country, people like you will be highly sought
after and generously paid for doing good work.
