These are just some of the random thoughts I have with getting in shape and looking great.. These "John Fit" Principles are in no particular order, but do represent things I feel to be True in "Getting Fit" Mentally and Physically.. I am a thinker.. I'm the guy that Looks Deep into Life & "Things" because I'm always Wondering Why Things Are, the Way They Are.. What Do Successful People Have in Common? Is it a Strategy or Just Flat Out UnParalleled Discipline that Take them to the Top? I like Psychology & understanding all the idiosincricies that Come Along With it. But, questioning Things can often be Dangerous by keeping you on the sidelines (mentally) while You Should Be Checked Into the Game & Making Things Happen.. However, at the right time its good to reflect & we all have principles and realities that shape the way we see the world.. Here's a few of my truths & convicted thoughts.. I understand much of what I think here may be controversial, & some things may seem to be clichique.. None-the-less, these are some thoughts on Life, tied in to Fitness..

Most people can immediately improve their image & self-esteem by losing body fat..

When a Man's Body Fat Goes Below 7% Body Fat, this Can be hard on the Immune System

(Not Very Healthy & Can Make the Face Look "Too Thin" & Actually Worsen Your Looks.. This is very common among Ectomorphsl..)

Men: Your Most Attractive "Look" is Probably @ 8.5-9% Body Fat with Only an Average Amount of Muscle..

(This is where your clothes will Look the best on your Frame & Your Beach Body will Be the Most Shaped..)

When You Look Big & Bulky, It May Show You Care Too Much About Growing Your Muscles, and Not Enought About Growing Your Mind.. Is This Why They're Called Meatheads?

(Lifting Weights is a Good Thing, But Overeating & Lack of Cardio to Grow Huge Muscle Isn't a Strategy for a Polished Look..)

Most Women Aren't Attracted to Big Muscles that Bust out of Shirts.. They Like Nice Abs & Long, Lean, Slim, Athletic Bodies..

(You"ve maybe heard me say this before)

Unfortunately, The Way You Look Does Matter When it Comes to Relationships, Sex, & Business.. Attractive Looks Receive More Benefits in the Beginning..

(Take Care of Yourself..)

After Attractive Looks Get Your Foot in the Door, You Better Have Something Upstairs or You'll Be Cast Aside..

(Looks are Important, but Intelligence & Creativity will Trump it in the Long Run)

A Recent Men's Health Poll Shows 86% of Women Would Rather Be With a Creative Man that Has little Wealth, than a Wealthy Man with No Creativity..

Confidence is.. Doing What You Enjoy, Being Who You Are, & Unaffected by Others Negative Perceptions..

(Most People Aren't Comfortable With Who They Really Are.. Don't be that Guy)

If YOu Aren't Passionate About What You're Doing, You Won't Do it Well..
