  Over the course of six years, my life has changed for the better. I haven't had the perfect journey so to speak, where I would end up on some website showing my six pack abs and awesome cuts. Life is not that easy and in my previous life, I let food and alcohol dictate my happiness. Well, that is no longer the case, mainly because the people at Parsons would never let me fall back into that trap. Yes, I am stronger and much more fitter than the previous 400-pound shell of myself, but I owe a lot of that to the people at Parsons. They want me to succeed. They want me to get healthier. And they don't judge me when I fall into some of the pratfalls of life. They encourage me to dust myself off and if necessary...rebuild. Those are the kind of people you need in your life. The challenges in the gym are similar to the challenges you receive in real life. Learning how to conquer your issues within the gym is a good paradigm for conquering your real world issues. Escaping into habits that promote bad health will catch up with you eventually, much like it did with me. It ain't about YOLO or succumbing to the viral pressure of belonging, it is about being able to get out of chair when you are older without any help. It is about not relying on science to save your life because you didn't maintain a health regimen. Let me put this to you in real terms. I know my mother would be dead without Parsons. She had a major blockage in her "widowmaker" artery that would have killed most 60+ women. But the strength she gained and the fitness she achieved allowed her body to recover and while she may not be able to go as hard as she used to, her body was strong enough to take the body blows and win by decision. Most importantly she gets to see her grandkids grow up rather than turn into a memory. And that is how I look at fitness....and those are some of the life lessons you learn at Parsons.
