Why "Too Fit To Quit"?

Health and fitness are two things that I have always enjoyed learning about. Having been brought up in a very athletic family, I grew up around and involved in sports. I played soccer and basketball throughout school for our team, but enjoyed any other sport for fun. My dad is a master trainer, coach, and nutritionist, which has kept my knowledge in this department current and full.
Just to share a little more about me, I was that girl who preferred to play a contact sport over cheerleading. I am not starting the debate on whether or not cheerleading is a sport, I believe it can be when done correctly, but it was never for me. I love to dance, but there wasn't enough dancing in any of the cheering I ever witnessed for me to jump on board. I preferred going out in my yard and playing tackle football with my four brothers and our guy friends. I was a tomboy, hands down. Additionally, there was very little time I was ever not outside doing something active or simply running. Staying fit and healthy has always been a part of my life. Unfortunately, my busy lifestyle has not allowed me to take those daily runs I always enjoyed. It's because of this that I sought after alternative ways to stay in shape and continue feeling good about myself, which I intend to share with you.
