Think about it: your body actually works. It can function properly. You are incredibly blessed to have a body that works. Think about the people that aren't as fortunate. When I see people with walkers, canes or wheelchairs I think about how they must be envious that my body works. They must think, sometimes, that if only their body worked right, they would get up and walk/run/bike/swim.
Since my body does work, I owe it to them to work it to its fullest potential. As fellow member of humanity, I owe it to them to take the best care of my body that I can. I owe it to them to push myself in the pool, in the gym and running on the road. They can't do those things so I should. How lucky are we that we can exert ourselves.
Then I see the overweight people smoking, drinking soda and buying all sorts of crap at the grocery store. Their bodies work; they sure don't seem to appreciate it. Their bodies work, but they are abusing them until one day they won't work. How sad.
