Exercise is as beneficial and important to your
emotional health as it is to your physical health.
While you can see and feel the physical changes to
your body, many people don’t recognize the mental
and emotional changes that occur from exercise. A
sense of satisfaction is achieved when you commit to
a self-improvement exercise routine. You set aside
personal time for you. You actually look forward to
your workout time, not only for your body, but also
for your mind. Exercise is a way to release stress
and relax from the pressures of life. This type of
physical release is as important as sleep to
replenish your body.
They say, "Patience is a Virtue."
Exercise is a great way to achieve that virtue while
strengthening your body at the same time. Take a
walk, go for a bike ride or do some stretches and
weight lifting. Our minds need to be strengthened
and conditioned just as much as our bodies. Starting
a healthy exercise program will keep our body and
soul young and strong.
Today’s busy lifestyle demands so much from our
body and our mind. Exercise is a natural way to
fight back and recondition ourselves for a longer,
healthier life.
If you are not sure how to get started, give me a
call. We will design a program just for your needs
and at your physical ability. Exercise is a personal
thing. You don’t need to keep up with someone
else. You need to work at your own speed to achieve
the maximum benefit for your body without injury.
That’s why many people today choose a personal
trainer to guide them. Working out in a busy gym or
in a structured class is OK for some people. When
you are in a group of people, you have many
different levels of ability. Many people push
themselves to "keep up with the group" and
that’s when injuries occur. Start at your own
speed and you will feel the satisfaction of your
progress as you become stronger and feel better.
