I love exercise; it's a way of life. I look forward to going to the gym each week because I know it's going to be great. Exercise is my solitude; my ME time. We all need some me time and what better way than a good workout? I get up at 3:30am Monday-Thursday to get ready for my 5am workout. I spend 1 hr & 15 to 1 hr & 30 minutes doing legs & chest, arms, back and shoulders and arms. I spread the aforementioned workouts over 4 days. I go hard in the gym because I believe if you aren't sweating or exhausted, you haven't worked out hard enough. Exercise keeps me looking good in my clothes, bodyfat down, energy up and I have a reason to replace calories burned. Exercise not only has health benefits but it's great for well-being and confidence. When you look good, you feel good. Professional athletes get paid to work out because they have to stay in top shape for their sports. Some people make a career out of exercise as fitness trainers/consultants, bodybuilders, etc. If I could get paid to work out full-time, I'd do it with no hesitation.
The way I feel after a workout is priceless. It lifts my mood and yes the solitude and time to think while the body works is great quality time with self. It shouldn't be done for anyone but self.
ReplyDeleteAlready. You can't take away the longevity that results after a good workout. I look forward to working out into my 80's and 90's. World's Strongest Senior Citizen...lol
