Why Exercise???

According to the American Heart Association every minute a woman dies from heart disease. Most of us  know that maintaining a healthy weight, eating right and moderately exercising can reduce our risks. The latter, exercise, for some of us is one of the easiest things to eliminate from an overbooked day. There are numerous information sources out there that educate us on how we can make it happen: scheduling it in our planner as an appointment, exercising during the commercials, buddying up, taking the stairs. My personal favorite are squats while cooking. Whatever the case it is indeed critical for our health that we fit in in whether through intervals or in an hour, whether its salsa lessons or walking. Here are my personal benefits of exercising that maybe you didn’t of:

·         A new wardrobe twice a year ( in a smaller size)

·         More energy ( to do your to-do list)

·         Decreased PMS symptoms (my family loves this)

·         Feeling powerfully strong ( Wonder woman)

·         Exuding  a new sexiness ( which can increase libido)

·         A round butt that was formerly flat (squats)

·         Cute workout clothes (more shopping)

·         Networking ( thanks to group exercise)

·         Less cravings for vices ( wine, chocolate and carbs)

·         Or feeling less guilty about that glass of  wine (because you burned 600 calories)

Happy Exercising!
