sat on my couch for 5 yrs. gained a lot of weight. decided to get his shit together, and started jogging up and down the stairs in our 3 story house. and doing pullups on my plum tree.
that and the alton brown diet based on michael pollin’s book and he got healthy and got moving.

he went back to school, got a phd while biking and climbing rocks out in utah.
so, i agree you can start w something small and go places.
