Why you should have a daily fitness routine in your schedule


We all know that exercise is an important part of overall health, but we still find it hard to fit an exercise routine into our daily lives. It takes planning to fit exercise into our already busy schedules. But can we really afford not to? Eating right and exercise are the key to a healthier life. Here are some reasons why we should find the time to exercise.

You Time

Let's face it, we are always “doing” for everyone else. Our kids, our husbands, our boss. Take advantage of your time to exercise. It's not selfish to want to do something for yourself.

Make New Friends

You can join your local gym, or even power walk or jog at your local park. You can develop some lasting friendships this way with people who have the same goal as you. It makes things more fun when you have a partner working out with you, and you are more likely to stick with it if you know someone is waiting for you to exercise.

Become Happier

Exercise release some vital “feel good” hormones. These hormones make you happier, and less stressed. I love how I feel after a good work out. And that feeling lasts too.

Mental Fitness
Just like exercise benefits your body, it can also benefit your brain. A study done on mice found that as little as 30 minutes of exercise a day can create new brain cells. This can mean a reduction in diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's.

Better Intimacy

After a long day of work, or taking care of children, physical intimacy may be the last thing on your mind. Exercising regularly will give you more energy, and also a better self-image which can lead to more desire.


I always find time to add exercise into my daily routine, and I look better and feel better as a result.   It is so worth the time.

Do you find the time?
