The Time Is Now!
May a new Renaissance begin.
I honestly believe that we have an opportunity to be born again through exercise, fitness & healthy eating. Not born again in a religious sort of way but in a brand new perspective kind of way. Lets face it, when you're eating fast food and getting winded going up a flight of stairs, how can you be part of a new Renaissance? You can't. You're too tired and self-conscious. A Renaissance requires clarity, enthusiasm, vision and purpose. To change the world you must first change yourself. To be part of a New Renaissance you'll need physical, emotional and mental balance.
The original Renaissance starting in Italy and moving through Europe between the 14th and 17th century saw an explosion of art, literature, science, and architecture. It was a time in our world history when people were searching, creating, exploring, experimenting and producing incredible things. If we want to be part of the New Renaissance we need to see the big picture. The big picture involves making health and fitness a priority NOW! If you feel miserable, tired and self-conscious how can you possibly be the amazing person that awaits you? Being healthy is the first step...the foundation for who you can be in this world.
Our good friend Tony Barca was overweight, contributing to his heart attack. His wife Dawn was out of shape and also overweight. They were neck deep in health problems. They did Power90 and got healthy. Tony is now a certified fitness trainer and Dawn is a certified Holistic Health Counselor. That's what I call a re-birth! A dramatic & dynamic 180 degree switch form who they were. They are part of a New Renaissance. They now take the onus off themselves and but the focus on helping other people feel better. When we feel better we can do more. When we do more we meet more people. We become part of something that is bigger than all of us. We are given the power to explore, search, create and produce.
