Move

Your body was not designed to be punished into submission. It was designed to be used. There is a difference, and most of modern fitness culture has forgotten it entirely. We have inherited a relationship with movement built on hatred. Hatred of the body's softness. Hatred of its slowness. Hatred of the reflection. So we attack it. We grind ourselves into the floor at six in the morning to earn the right to exist. We measure worth in pounds lifted and miles run and calories scorched, and we wonder why we feel emptier the harder we train. This is not fitness. This is self-violence wearing athletic apparel.
