CROSS-fit #70 Big and Strong

We all coin the term big and strong, big and strong, big and strong.
To get strong, inside or out, you gotta get big, inside or out.
But what if that just isn't you to begin with?
I've seen many people raise questions about their own physique, stating that...
"Hey, my body just isn't meant to be this way, it isn't meant to lean out and grow".
Or, Crossfit just isn't for me, I don't wanna bulk up.
Well, I don't condemn any one of those statements but I'll just question back.
Which is better? Fitness or how your body looks like?
It's the simple priorities in life.
Yeah we all wanna get big (for guys)
Look like a million dollars when we step into the room.
But when it really boils down to who you really are inside.
I'm sorry to say that I don't think the ripples in your body will do you any good.
Rather, it's the substance beneath that which proves who you really are....
Being fit, being able to do things you know others can't, being able to accomplish a feat you never though possible. Now that's something that'll bring confidence up.
Of yourself, of those around you and of those looking up to you.
Yeah, looks are great, but come on, get with the program, go for being fit.
No one likes a superficial person do they?
So be who you really are....
If you're Big and Strong, you'll naturally show.
Inside and out.
(To me, looking good is just a bi-product of fitness, Just saying...)
