  • As a busy entrepreneur do you struggle with staying in shape/losing weight?

    Posted by Joshua Clark on October 19, 2019 at 7:46 pm

    Hey everyone, I’m currently in a research phase where I’m trying to find out how one could make it easier for busy entrepreneurs to stay in shape ☺

    So I have two simple questions:

    As a busy entrepreneur do you struggle with staying in shape? If you do what are the two biggest issues you face?

    Hi Joshua
    Welcome to the COW. Not that these are overly personal questions, but we’re a pretty tight community. How about filling out your profile so we know who you are.

    I think there’s 2 items here: 1 is the entrepreneur, the other is the production field in general. Long days are the norm and one has to manage what’s important. Getting in 20 min of exercise or meditation can be tricky, but it can be done. Access to good, healthy food fast is a big one. You don’t always know when mealtime will be, so getting a quality meal with time to eat it is high on the list.

    Hey Steve, thanks for taking the time to respond to my post ☺ I’m a 19 year old from England, my mission is to be helping business owners and entrepreneurs loose weight and have more energy:)

    Time management and access to quick easy meals seem to be a common problem

    Hi Joshua –
    so you are a video professional, looking to help us loose weight and have more energy ?

    I will tell you what – I will meet you at the local pub, and we can discuss this over a few rounds of Jamesons. You buy, and I will answer anything you want about the professional video business.

    Find a routine…. A routine that someway is a benefit to your career if you can. And let me say I’m right there with you because all this time in front of the computer screen takes it’s toll weight wise.

    In the winter I cut my own firewood. To really hammer home the exercise part I actually use a wheel barrow to haul the wood about 1/4 mile out of the woods on a 2-3 times a week basis. No hike… No heat mentality.

    In summer, as Steve mentioned , for me it’s all about the food I eat. Growing a back yard garden is so much easier these days with a zillion youtube tutorials on how to do it. I get exercise and I eat better.

    And as I started I shall end… FIND A ROUTINE and stay with it as best you can.

    Enjoy Life… It\’s Later Than You Think..!
