Do I look fat in this dress? Is that a wrinkle? Is my tummy flat? How about my thighs? Are those love handles? Is that a zit?!
These are questions inevitably asked by women of all ages and the answers might be somewhat alarming . . . unless, of course, you know a little bit about the preventive and restorative aspects of health and fitness.
With the new Best Body insert found in the February issue of Natural Bodybuilding & Fitness magazine, I challenge you to think about your lifelong fitness goals and pursuits. Let Best Body serve as your own personal guide to help you zero in on what matters most in your life. Within this magazine (as well as through this website!) you will find topics covering everything from healthy eating, beauty, total body strengthening and balance training to relationships, pregnancy, weight loss and the green movement.
Pursuing a healthy lifestyle will help promote physical, mental and emotional well-being in your everyday life. Truth be told, we may never become a Hollywood Starlet like Danielle Savre (read her inspiring story on page 126 of the new issue!). But this doesn’t mean we can’t strive to reach our own genetic potential and discover what it feels like to exceed our own personal best. And once you do that, everything else will fall perfectly in place.
The first step is realizing that beauty is not just skin deep. Reality star Julia Anderson from ABC’s True Beauty proved this in her win against nine strangers – each one determined to demonstrate that they were more beautiful than the other. And although “beauty” can be somewhat superficial nowadays – between chemical peels, breast augmentations, collagen injections, Botox, cosmetic surgery and Restalyne fillers – it doesn’t have to be. Real beauty is determined by much more than the number of lines you see in the mirror each morning. It all starts with a journey. Are you ready to begin yours?
There is no better time to embark on something new than right now. Put all excuses aside, set a realistic goal for yourself and let us help you achieve it. With the right determination, reliable resources and a dash of mental acuity, nothing will be able to stand in your way. I hope this issue inspires you to seek new horizons and get into the best shape of your life. Everyone here at Best Body is dedicated to helping you do just that.
