Welcome to the CNC Fitness blog!

Hi fellow fitness enthusiasts,

I'm very happy to introduce you to the first of hopefully many posts here at CNC Fitness blog! I guess my first post should tell you a little about who I am, and why I chose to start up this blog.

In my brief online profile, I mention that I'm a recent grad, and have a keen interest in both health promotion and physical activity. During my undergrad, I was by no means a gym rat, but I tried to spend a couple of hours a week doing resistance training, and another few playing various sports. The thought process was that all I had to do was spend a few hours a week doing "good" stuff for my body, so on weekends (and the odd weekday) I could enjoy more of the "bad" stuff, like drink beer and have all you can eat wings! They cancel each other out, right??

Look, I'm not going to discourage being physically active for most of the week so you can eat bacon on the weekends. At least that's a starting point! As long as your motivated to get to the gym and not sit at home watching Seinfeld reruns all night, I'm happy. And yes, there is something wrong with that!

That brings me to the purpose of this blog. One thing that I've noticed about online fitness materials and magazines is that a lot of them focus on high-end athletes, and have little or no instruction for beginner or intermediate exercisers. My goal is to provide some insight for people simply trying to get healthier. I'll do my best to touch on all aspects of fitness, including proper exercise techniques, nutrition, and even mental health. I may throw in a rant or two about various fad diets or fitness products as well. I guess you'll have to keep reading to find out!

What you'll notice about this blog is that I'll write it in easy to understand language that doesn't leave you scratching your head wondering what a latissimus dorsi is. And the absolute best thing about this instruction/opinion is that it's absolutely free! Even more, you're welcome to post comments on topics that you would like to hear about, and I can do my best to address them.

Thanks for reading, and keep pushing yourself to be healthier!
