Getting in shape is something many of us planned on, but never got around to doing so. A common problem a majority of people face is the lack of motivation early on. A good way to get started is to think of reason why you’d like to be fit.
We all have different reasons to want to get in shape. Some want to lose weight, some want to gain size, while some are just plain concerned about their health. Whatever your reason might be, here are some reasons why you might consider getting in shape.
Increase self-esteem. Walking around looking good with a great body, who wouldn’t be confident? Regardless of your body appearance, regular exercise helps improve your self-esteem.
Boosts energy. After you’ve started exercising, you’ll notice newfound energy. Taking care of simple business will never have felt easier. Walking the dog, playing sports, even spending time with the family, you’ll notice an increase in your energy levels/stamina.
Relieve stress. Exercising has been proven to reduce stress and relieve anxiety. Even after your very first workout, you will relieve built up stress. Just exercising 30-45 minutes a day will help bring up your mood.
Improve health and reduce health risks. Being in shape can help reduce risk of heart disease, and lengthen our lifespan. Your overall body will also be strengthened, thus reducing chances such as osteoporosis.
Better sleep. Exercising regularly can improve your sleep. People who exercise fall asleep sooner and stay sleep longer.
Overall strength. This is quite obvious but regular exercise improves strength overall. From standing up, to lifting boxes, our bodies are able to perform daily routines more easily.
