The perfect exercise

Ten kilometres every day, Pilates, Cardio-merengue, Spinning, Kick-boxing, Jogging... The shape-up trousers, the technical t-shirt, the special socks, and the trainers with inner tube. The carbohydrates, the proteins, the calcium, the fibre and the five portions of fruit a day. So much effort, so much discipline, so much sacrifice and the mirror telling me it wasn’t enough, I had to try harder. I was about to quit, to throw in the towel, to give it up; I almost thought it wasn’t worth it. And, suddenly, out of the blue, I found the perfect exercise.
