Exercise Payoff

 

Lets look at three payoffs to having a good exercise program.

Payoff 1. Exercise boosts your immune system. If you cant find time to exercise, you'd better find time to be sick. 

Payoff 2. Exercise releases chemicals into the brain that calm you. Running is a good release, especially when you have a lot on your mind. Physically you'll feel refreshed and emotionally it's great relief.

Payoff 3. Exercise can increase your fun. 

Secret to Success: Devote at least 20 minutes three times a week to a vigorous physical activity that you enjoy.

Remember this: While genetics play a role, your physical condition is often determined by the lifestyle you choose. So when you say “I need to exercise,” the choice is yours; you can do so.

Oil lessens friction, thus slowing the breakdown of machine components. But that is not all.
