This my first week really getting serious with exercise. I have always put it off, i guess once you start to put it off, you forget how good you feel after working out. I should probably post this in the exercise forum, but i thought i might encourage those that are like me...the ones that when they are not exercising do not even go to the exercise forum...no sense in rubbing it in, that i am not exercising, right? So anyway. I just wanted to attest to what a difference exercise has made in me this week. I lost two pounds, when i should have lost none because of a bad weekend prior. But that is not even the best part. I used to say, i dont even have energy to clean the house, there is no way i can exercise AND clean the house. So exercise was put on the back burner. Well, i knew if i wanted to lose this week i was going to have to get on the ball...the balance ball, that is. So i got off my bum and planned to put cleaning on the back burner. I even surprised myself though. I did my 38 minute workout then discovered that my energy runnith over. The exercise gave me energy to clean the house. So all this time, i was avoiding exercise cause i didnt have the energy to even clean my house...who knew, all i had to do was exercise and i would have the energy to clean.
Plus i just feel better, my spirits are higher, my body feels tighter in places that have felt more blobby than usual, ha ha. But overall, to all those putting off exercise due to lack of energy...i challenge you to one really good 30-40 minute workout and then tell me you have no energy.
