Five reasons to work out

by VidaBlogger2017

I’m sure we all know by now that exercise is great for you. But let’s be honest, sometimes finding that motivation to work out can be a little difficult. So, in this post, I am going to share my top five reasons for working out.

1. Exercise can completely change your mood!

When you work out, your body produces endorphins, which will give you a rush of euphoria and happiness. You will feel better after a workout than you did before it. Next time you’re having a bad day, try going for a fast-paced run or taking a spinning class, and the day won’t seem so bad after all.

2. Exercising is sociable.

Whenever I move to a new city to study or work, I look for exercise classes to do. You meet like-minded people, you can support each other during a difficult workout and you all share a collective feeling of euphoria when the class finishes!

3. Exercise makes you feel confident.

We all know the physical effects of exercise on our bodies but we don’t always talk about the mental effects. Exercise might give you a feeling of confidence from being comfortable with your body and appearance. This new confidence might even help in your social or work life.

4. It helps to relieve stress.

Focusing on lifting weights or going for a run can help you forget the problems and stress of daily life, studies or work. During exams, I always spend an hour a day in the gym. It makes me feel less anxious and it also helps me to sleep those important eight hours the night before a big exam.

5. Finally, exercise makes us feel strong, fit and healthy!

Every day, the 20 minutes on the treadmill get easier, the weights feel lighter and you feel a great sense of achievement. It's a great feeling doing something you couldn’t do before and knowing it’s a result of your hard work.

So, next time you’re feeling down, put your trainers on and get sweating. It might not be easy but I promise you will feel so much better once you have finished!

In fact, yes. Excercises I do are running and riding a bike during the mornings. Not only does it give some energy for a day, but also improves my mood in general. I can say with confidence, that I am not a kind of a really thin one, but excercises give me an opportunity to loose some weight. And the last but not least is that I became much more confident. To sum up, that miserable amount of excercise a day can really give you lots of benefits.

Yes, I'm trying to exercise regularly, at least 3 times a week. Now I'm doing exercises at home with an app on my phone because for me, it saves so much time if you do that at home. I usually feel good after exercises and they help me to feel better.

To be honest, I don't exercise regularly, even though I know that it would be better if I exercised every day. Firstly, I don't have enough time to do exercises. Secondly, I don't really enjoy exercising.

I guess I started exercising a bit more regularly after the pandemic hit everyone. No choice, right? No gyms available, all you can do is to put on sneaker.and run or exercise at home. I try to do it regularly and feel that muscle tension in my body and a feel of lightness.

At the moment, I often go in for sports. Namely, I go to the gym. There I train 3 times a week for 1:30 hours. In training I do a variety of exercises to pump my body. After training, I feel light in my body, I feel light in my soul. In addition to training, I find communication with people who go to the same gym. Therefore, in playing sports there are many advantages that bring great pleasure from playing sports. Sports are cool.

Exercising is very important not only for weight loss but also for a healthy lifestyle. Personally I exercise 6 times a week, Monday to Saturday, in the mornings; I like to do cardio exercises and dance, I don't go to any gym, I do 30 minutes of exercises at home watching youtube videos, they are very good. When I am very busy because of college homework or when I am in exams I don't exercise much, however, I try to make some time and do cardio exercises for 15 min. Since I have been exercising my health has improved, I have lost weight somehow I feel more confident, I have changed my attitude and I am more positive; I feel more active than ever since I have been exercising, I don't feel stressed by virtual classes, really exercising and eating healthy has changed my life.

Because it's important, from the beginning, health, this helps to have better health and helps the heart as any sport would. Apart from that, to do so and to dedicate the necessary time, you are relieved by the stress that many of us have day by day and relaxes you first and foremost. Also, it helps to socialize, since among people we help us to exercise better and better. And it helps us feel stronger, and with it see us better, with a better body shape and more confident.

Yes, when I was a child I practiced soccer and karate. Currently I practice swimming three days a week, and the truth is that swimming is the sport I love, because I have learned many swimming techniques and also because I live in a state where it is very hot and refreshing in the pool is very cool. Practice sports is good for health since it keeps you doing a physical activity that helps you stay healthy and also helps you avoid diseases. Practicing swimming I have felt better and healthier because before training swimming I did not practice any sport or physical activity. What this article says is right because practicing a sport changes your lifestyle and also your habits. Guillermo Arturo L.C.

Exercise is something very important in our life, and this is demonstrated through the quality of life of people in which sports play a fundamental role because each person is free to choose each sport and stay fit and healthy. Besides, I think that the sport is a good way to have your own rutine and don't be stressed. Also, exercising keep us away from technology and get new friends. However I sometimes do exercise because I live a little far away from the city and sometimes there is no time. The benefits of exercise are five as mentioned in the text, which are the following: change your mood, become you more sociable, make you feel confident, help to relieve stress and makes us feel strong, fit and healthy.

A few years ago, I started to play volleyball in a sports club in my town. I've notice the big change my body and mind has experimented. Now, I am more or less fit and I am more positive than the time I didn't do exercise. Moreover, I love playing volleyball and it helps me to relieve all the stress that exams give me.

I used to go to the gym everyday, that was a part of my daily routine and that was enough for me to feel healthy and confident of myself , and now that we are in quarantine and we can't go out , you realize how much you miss that feeling of been excercising yourself so now more than ever i love excercising at home , it helps me to de-stressed!

Reading this article i consider that working out it could be a great strategy to reduce the stress because can help us to forget our troubles, work, and we even can treat some mental, emotional and pshysical problems. I say it seeing that i do exercise three times a week, no an intense one compared to other athletic people, but i jog in the afternoons from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., i like it since i enjoy the environment and i think it´s good for clearing mind. Besides, i´ve noticed more energy and encouragement when i do my daily activities like getting up early or getting less tired despite having been working for hours. So, yes! Everyboby should try it!

OSCAR In my opinion, I think that playing sports is very important for health, it helps us feel better about ourselves, for example, I exercise at home every day and I also go running, but now with this situation of the coronavirus I no longer go out. I only exercise at home like sit-ups, push-ups, etc, I also like to go play soccer, I almost play soccer every day, since I started exercising I have felt much better with more health, stronger, better with myself, ,, so to people who do not exercise at all I recommend that you do it and you will feel much better about yourself and you will feel strong, or the same if you start to practice any sport

I used to join spinning class every evening.Before spinning class,I run about an hour .And after the class, I sometimes join Yoga club too. But spinning time is the best one for me. It is one of ways of releasing stress.It not only lose my weight but also helps my mental problems such as fatigue and stress. I was so sad because of my heavy weight.Almost everyone tease me. That’s why I started to join spinning club. After one month,I lost 10lbs .After 3 months,I lost 35 lbs and I got my goal.As the writer said ,It really improve my self confidence .That’s why I can’t break up with spinning club until now.
