        ditch the gym membership, get your workout in during regular tasks. It’s an investment in your own health.

          I’m skeptical if health is of value or if there are higher priorities for our life. I am reminded of this quote,

          "You will find rest from vain fancies if you perform every act in life as though it were your last. " Marcus Aurelius

          Would I be concerned for my health if my day was my last? I think not. Perhaps I would prioritize other people, express my farewells.

      I would walk with my backpack full of grocceries about once a week. The execise is great, walking with extra weight is called rucking and many athletes train by rucking as it builds muscle, endurance, and a bit of cardio while being easier on the joints than running.
