Hey Beachers, weight loss may be 90% diet (or 80%, or something!) but exercise does count! Not only does it help take the weight off and build muscle, it's vital for maintaining our losses. Add the feel good chemicals you get from exercising and there's no doubt it's worth our time. Even with all that going for it our busy lives make it hard to keep motivated so come on in and join us in May. Whether you are aiming for 5 minutes a day or running a marathon let's share our successes and be accountable.
