“Physical fitness has been a priority in my life for years. I’ve always found that if I treat my body right, everything else will work well too. My fitness level really started to peak after high school when I started weight lifting, running, and various martial arts consistently. I believe any of those activities are a great way to start if you’re looking for a change in your life like I was. By doing that and keeping a disciplined and healthy diet, I believe it’s helped my energy and stress levels, confidence, and grades in university, as the mind can really thrive when the body is taken care of as well. My only recommendation to people is to make fitness and healthy eating a priority in their life as well since the benefits are endless. You only get one body in life, so do what you’re able to in order to get the most out of it.” – Mitchell Davies, screening officer at YVR , SFU student, fitness enthusiast.
