Benefits of Exercise

The health benefits of regular exercise are astounding. While exercise alone isn’t very effective for weight loss, (you can’t out-run your fork!), everyone can benefit from healthy motion! Check out these ways that exercise can help you during your journey to lifelong transformation, one healthy habit at a time™.

• Exercise relieves stress! A quick run on the treadmill or speed walk around the neighborhood can leave you relaxed and more settled.
• Exercise will boost your mood. By exercising only 30 minutes per day, your outlook will change instantly and boost your confidence and self-esteem.
• Improve your energy with exercise. Regular physical activity will improve your muscle strength and increase endurance levels, giving you more energy throughout the day.
• Sleep better with exercise. By adhering to the micro habit of 30 minutes of motion per day, you will not only fall asleep quicker, but you may even sleep sounder.
• Exercise keeps the brain active. Even a mild activity like walking can keep your brain fit and active.
