I have written a lot about the health benefits of regular exercise. Science has proven that if you exercise regularly, you live longer. I am here to tell you though you will get some instant gratification from exercising regularly since it makes activities of daily life so much easier. Here's why:
Cardio: Regular cardio helps when you need to sprint after the bus so you are not late for work. Running regularly will help you not rip a hamstring when you chase your toddler who is headed for the street and ignoring your pleas for her to stop. Just imagine if you had to run from a bear!
Strength Training: Building strong muscle will help you lug your big Fendi bag around. Not to mention the power you will feel when you can twist open that stubborn lid on that jar of spaghetti sauce
Flexibility Training: Stretching regularly makes twisting around to grab your purse from the back seat easy. Not to mention flexibility helps when contorting your body to retrieve your earring from under the couch.
Core Training: Staying strong in your center helps you stay balanced as you walk quickly downstairs in your new 3 inch heels. Plus, keeping a strong core will help you protect your back when you carry a heavy bag of groceries, a heavy baby, or a big ol' sack of dirt when you are gardening.
So workout for yourself today. If you are going to live a long and happy life you want to feel strong for every day of it.

Exercising always makes me feel better throughout the day. I have more energy and don't feel as guilty sitting in a chair at work for 8 hours when i know i worked out in the morning.
1cute examples, but you forgot sex. flexibility and strong body makes it more fun and experimental.
2oh yeah, and working out accually produces energy... a lot of people think it just takes your energy out. when i don't work out and stay at home just for the sake of being lazy... i sleep longer and feel more tired.
3Working out DEFINITELY gives me more energy. The days that I don't work out I feel a little more sluggish and just "blah". I notice the benefits of running all the time...any time I have to book it to the store from the car in the rain, I sprint in the door and I'm not even out of breath. It's a nice feeling, that's for sure.
4Oh Allytta you naughty thing! Yes, I have read in multiple sources that regular exercise can improve your sex life.
5I have just started working out 3 times a week- and the first two times I was EXHAUSTED. and hated it. the third day I actually didn't feel like sleeping, I felt oddly...energized. it was great!
hopefully I keep it up.
6all of this is such a good motivation for working out.
7thanks fitsugar!
Days that I do exercise I feel much lighter and more energetic! I also notice I get a much better night's sleep.
8These were cute and made me smile. Thanks!
