that’s great,” said Frizzle, “If you’re strong, weak, overweight, underweight it doesn’t matter. Honestly people tend not to care [about that]. The fact that you’re there doing something to better yourself, that’s all that people care about, like ‘hey, thumbs up, right on!’” After battling the demons of time and motivation the battle becomes the workout itself. Now Google has a lot of answers, but your physical fitness is not among them. What the internet is useful for is giving ideas of new exercises or modifications. Search engines and video hosting websites are not paid professionals that are dedicated to your health. “If you’ve never worked out before, never done any sort of exercise, have no idea where to start and are completely intimidated - go to the gym and sign up for a few personal training sessions,” said Allik. “This person will get you at least going.” Allik, Frizzle and Giancola experience all barriers but one, an individual’s attitude. Exercising doesn’t require a monumental life change, but it does require a small amount of motivation and dedication. Maybe these brave firefighters can take a break from putting out flames and ignite a passion for healthy living!
