    Hopefully getting back into lifting for fun again.

I've been thinking about what motivates people to exercise recently. What makes so you find fun about lifting? What motivates you?

It's a pretty meditative deal for me. I find it really helps me put things in perspective. It's just this time of the day where I go to exert a lot of energy, focus on pretty basic movements, and just breathe. With all that goes on day to day, lifting serves as a real way to refocus.

It's also pretty cool when I lift a box at work, and it gets easier to pick up hahaha.
