Many times, the reason people begin a exercise program is to reap the physical benefits of it. They want to look better when they look in the mirror or fit into a certain size of clothing. However, even if your physical appearance does not change when you begin an exercise program, you are still significantly improving your health in a number of ways. So, be patient with yourself if you are not seeing physical results right away, and know that you are still improving your health and making your quality of life much better than it was.
- Reduce stress
- 1 in 10 Americans suffer from stress and anxiety. However any form of exercise whether it be yoga, cardio or strength training, can reduce stress by relieving tension from the body.
- Improve Health
- Regular exercise can help improve a number of health problems such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, cholesterol and arthritis.
- Elevate Mood
- Exercise releases chemicals in the brain called endorphins that give the feeling of joy, which is why people tend to feel happy and energetic after exercising.
- Increase Productivity
- Working out before work can help make you more productive and give you more energy to get through your day.
- Fall in Love with Fitness
- When you find physical activities that you love, you will be more motivated to exercise more. The more you exercise, the more benefits you will see.
Before you give up exercising because you are not seeing the physical benefits you are looking for, think about all of the other improvements you are making on your health. Keep it up and the results will come!
