Quotation of the Week

"Believe nothing, no matter where you read it, or who said it, no matter if I have said it, unless it agrees with your own reason and your own common sense." -Buddha


Honestly, don't believe everything I say. I'm not the end-all, be-all, perfect source of information on health and fitness. No fitness professional is. We do the best we can - but we make mistakes as we continue to learn and grow. The most well-intentioned people can not be right ALL the time! You need to take that information in through your own personal filter. Weigh all options before blindly believing anything. Make sure it "passes the test" of what you truly believe.

At the same time...

Don't believe everything your doctor tells you. Don't believe everything the media says. Don't believe everything you hear from ANY source.

Make up your own mind. Use the information available and create your own base of beliefs.

And I'll hope that you return to me for advice, if you so choose :)
