Many a times the reason people state that they are unhealthy and unfit is because of the stress and sedentary life style of there current employment. What if we started a trend of choosing our career based on the people we want to become and the life we wanted to live?
What I have done is created a list of employment that anyone can obtain, that is beneficial to ones health and mind.
Safeway, courtesy clerk
I am going to take a wild guess and assume that you are not impressed with the job of a glorified bagger? the truth is, despite the fact that this Job has very little respect and is commonly held by high school students, does not mean that it can't provide a decent work out.
When I worked for safeway (a long time ago), I was consistently dripping in sweat due to running around fetching cart, finding objects for customers, helping old ladies carry thing, and consistently keeping the cashiers happy by bagging groceries at the the speed of the angry mobs demand for swift service as they must have their snacks and out the door with enough time to make it to their teams kick off. Man did I love the rush!
You might think this work is beneath you but The Pursuit of health have you ever notice people work work the lowest paid positions are also the fittest? Give it a shot.

Adventure guide
As the name alludes to, this career is full of adventure leading "students" or "clients" into an adventure, while getting paid for it!
With all sport, a certain amount of exercise and practice are required to perform well. The job itself is moderately physical and at time can be exhilarating. Can you imagine getting paid to go hiking!?
The requirements to get started guiding are actually very reasonable. Most outfitters will pick you up with little to no outdoor experience, train you, and certify you while you are in the begging of your new life style.
(more to come, this article will only get more in depth with time)!
