A Few Reasons to Workout
An exercise routine is important for keeping healthy and in good
shape. Many people want to workout but can't seem to find the
time or motivation. This is nonsense! There's always time, you
just need to prioritize. Wake up thirty to sixty minutes earlier
every morning. Go for a walk during your lunch hour, or park
your car further away from the office. There's always time for
exercise; you just have to be willing to cut into your personal
time.
Motivation is a whole other issue, not that you should need a
reason to get off the couch and do something healthy. Perhaps
some of the reasons listed here will be enough for you to
incorporate a workout routine into your lifestyle.
1. Your clothes will fit better. When you work out, you not only
lose weight but inches as well. Soon you'll be able to breathe
much easier while wearing blue jeans, which by the way aren't as
snug anymore. 2. Your physical appearance will improve. Your
cheeks will be rosy, you'll have fewer chins and you'll exude
healthiness. 3. It improves your balance and coordination. No
one likes a klutz anyway. 4. It will enhance your sexual
performance. Need I say more? 5. You'll sleep better. You'll
also be more relaxed and in a better mood. 6. Daily workouts
boost your self-esteem. There's nothing wrong with a positive
outlook. 7. It reduces your risk of heart disease. This should
be reason enough. 8. You'll be more likely to survive a heart
attack. 9. Reduces the risk of developing high blood pressure.
No one wants that. 10. In older individuals, it can actually
improve short-term memory.
Hopefully these reasons are enough to convince you to add a
workout routine to your schedule. It doesn't have to entail
hours of heavy lifting at the gym. Go for a long walk, swim or
bike ride. Take karate or kayaking lessons. Find some activities
that interest you and get moving. Your body will thank you.
