It's a huge pillar of support in my life and I recommend everyone to work out their own fitness plan and stick with it! Regular exercising has SO much benefits, at the very least you get this beautiful endorphin rush after sweating it out and working out a storm. Endorphins are hormones your brain produces to get you that "happy" feeling. It is the same kind of feeling drug addicts chase, new couples have and new mothers produce when they see their babies. You feel invincible and on top of the world. With exercise, it is probably the healthiest way to obtain this hormone. Oh, consuming chocolate also produces this.
When you eat right and exercise regularly, most people will enjoy
a. Less aches and pains. You know what I'm talking about. All those years prancing around in those?Yup, they take a toll on your poor lower back. Pregnancy too. Funnily enough, I used to have knee problems climbing stairs. Ever since I started working out regularly, it went off.
b. A fitter, trimmer body that you are proud of. 6 packs or not, your body can only benefit from the strength training and cardio workouts you constantly do. After a while, you can wear clothes you used to shy away from because the flabby arms and saggy ass firms up and you can wave goodbye without it trembling nonstop! Your arms that is. If your ass trembles when you wave goodbye, I'd say you've got bigger problems there... hehe
c. You can enjoy your food and do not need to look for weird diets that promise the world and usually do not work. Some of those that have been bandied around... no this and no that, I think even if it works you have no idea what it's done to you internally. Trust yourself, not so whatever studies the papers decide to publish on that given day. We have seen how coffee is SO bad for you one day, then a total turnaround by saying it's got anti cancer benefits the next. It all depends on whomever is funding the studies, doesn't it? Bah humbug! Eat right and eat well.
d. It's no guarantee that you won't drop dead of a heart attack before your expiry date. I hear people talking about so and so they knew who lived so healthily and yet still died of a heart attack or a stroke you know. But all things considered, it is still your best bet. The benefits of living healthily will put the life into your years. Remember, its not the years you have in your life, but the life you have in them! What is the point of living to a hundred if you can't eat what you want, you can't travel because you can't walk long distances, you can't physically enjoy time with your loved ones?
Life is too short to be otherwise.
