The ins and outs of looking fit are misunderstood. We must understand the “ins” to get the “outs” we desire. When I went “all in,” going “all out” happened automatically. In other words, I had to become athletic to achieve the athletic look.
I invested in a personal trainer who helped me feel like an athlete, eventually turning me into one. He instilled a love for weight training, pushing limits, and monitoring nutrition. He saw the athlete in me, and lo and behold, one began to chisel out in the mirror.
As I invested, my vestments appeared: leanness, visible abdominal muscles, a clear frame, and a sharp jawline. I was literally chiseled from investing.
I often bicycle through an exclusive island neighborhood in my city. I admire the large homes, the ocean views, the swimming pools, and the opulence. I admire the “rich look.” However, wealth can hide behind the appearance of wealth. I’m pointing your attention to the “ins” of it. The “outs” are hard to gauge when it can be falsified. Real wealth is secretly embodied and can even present itself as “poor-looking.” Ever heard of the millionaire next door?
When you remove the “look” of wealth, how can you tell who is truly rich? Rich-looking isn’t necessarily rich. But when you remove your clothing, your body won’t lie for you. We know who is fit by looking.
The bodysuit can’t hide you, but we might not know who’s rich just by looking. Only you can know your true bank account. Evidence often lies—except in fitness. When you go “all in,” you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about.
