Exercise Goals :
It was very difficult for me to give up basketball, even when I knew that the anaerobic stress was damaging my tissues. My love for competition, continued improvement in the sport and overall enjoyment of the game were the reasons I had a hard time quitting. Needless to say, my emotional attachment to the sport allowed for a distortion of my priorities. I had often told patients, concerning their health, "Short term sacrifice means long term benefits" and, "discipline is not a four letter word." Knowing I was not practicing what I preached, and hearing my own words echo in my head, I soon submitted to my conscience. The good news is that once I began to develop my aerobic system, I was able to once again play basketball, and this time without pain.
Many of you who are reading this book may have an emotional attachment to one or several things that are not healthy. You may need to give up some things completely; others may be returned to you in time, once a greater level of health is achieved. You should not look at these changes as anything but positive. Always remember that when we take care of the things God has placed in our trust, including our body, we are blessed.
