When you have a positive attitude and a well-planned workout, you’re emboldened to do great things for your body, mind and spirit. Consistent exercise, whether it be in a group setting or in solitude, is just about one of the best things you can do for yourself. The benefits are far reaching and ever expanding. You are most likely up to snuff on most of the benefits, but in case you’re debating whether you should sit it out or go for it, here are a few reasons to get in gear (courtesy of the article on from the CDC’s Physical Activity and Health):

Exercise…

  • Helps to control your weight
  • Reduces your risk of Type II Diabetes
  • Reduces your risk of select cancers (i.e. breast and colon)
  • Strengthens your musculoskeletal system (muscles and bones)
  • Improves your mood and mental health
  • Increases your chances of living longer

Show up, give it your best, and see how you feel. Cheers!
