Honestly, I don’t like working out, but in order to stay healthy, I usually go for long walks in the park.

I always go hiking for just getting fit. I don’t like lifting weight so much because it deeply work on my muscles so it was like more getting fit. I believe my definition will be better if I continue to doing exercise on regular basis.

Definetely i want to be more like body builder if it is not that hard, but as every boday knows this require hard work like pump iron every day. I think my desire to be a body builder is not very high, so I just hike small mountain every morning. That help a lot my health.

After 5 years of rest I decided to get fit. I was wondering what kind of working out I can choose and I started my yoga lessons. I believe it will definition my body and my soul. I am not big fan of lifting weights or pumping iron. I do not need a big muscles and I thing that yoga it the best decision for me.

i really like to start working out, especially in morning because it makes me feel heathy and relax my mind. I would prefer to get definition on my shoulder than get big muscles on whole body. But, I have no time to do it regularly. Getting big muscles is considered by young boys,it is the way to attract gilrs.


Due to the benifit of exercise, I will have my own intentions to go for walks out on a regular basis with my family members

Well, if morning exercises are considered some sort of working out, so yeah, I like working out.


I’m not much of a body builder, I’m not a body builder at all indeed. And I doubt it’s a good goal for a girl to work for, to have big muscles is not really cool on a girl. I just want to get a little of definition, so I just exercise and go for walks on a regular basis.
