Never to late to start
It’s never to late to start working out.

*by our spouses. They’d never lie about this.
Jason Grubb went from overweight and sedentary (at 38) to 2 x CrossFit games champion (by 42).
No interest in CrossFit?
My Sister Jamie’s first marathon (circa 2000) was somewhere in the neighborhood of 4:30.
Now she runs 3:15 (and just scored a top 10 finish in the Corporate Challenge last week).
Don’t like running?
I walked out of my first yoga class after straining my neck (circa 2001).
Now I’m a certified yoga instructor with over 2500 class hours taught.
No interest in yoga?
It doesn’t matter how old you are, how un-athletic, how many times you fail. It just doesn’t matter. None of it. Someone with more excuses achieved your goal.
How’d they do it?
No one can say for certain, this is but a likely story.
1- They changed their identity. They didn't join Witsec or anything, but one day they decided they were a crossfitter, a runner, or a yogi.
Maybe they went a step further and created S.M.A.R.T goals (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, time sensitive) to improve.
2- They stopped caring. Of course they cared about their goal but they released what others thought; about failure; about looking foolish; about what could go wrong; about if they’re starting too late. Zenpowerment guru Randy Scott writes “The fear of what others think of us is one of the five major fears. If we listen to this fear, we live a small life. When we live for the approval of others, we are living their lives, not our own. I hate to break this to you, but people don’t think about you as much as you think they do. While you think the world is revolving around you, they think it’s revolving around them.”
3- They kept showing up. Kept moving. Kept failing. Until one day…
There are no guarantees.You may never become “good” at what you’re trying; you will get a little better though. No matter when you start.
Sound interesting?
Improvement is hastened by hiring a coach. That's something we specialize in at Train.
So fire it up. Today is the youngest day of your life,; you've just decided you're a crossfitter; a runner; a yogi. This is your authentic self and its never too late to own it.
