Here are three reasons why exercise is essential to add into your daily routine!

1. Decrease risk of Illness– Exercise increases the amount of white blood cells and their transportation through the body where the harmful bacteria is located or where tissues are damaged. With this increase of blood flow and healing cells, sick or injured people seem to bounce back quicker than others.

2. Better cope with stress– As you exercise your brain is flooded with epinephrine (a.k.a. adrenalin) which increases the flow of oxygenated blood to the brain. In turn this will heighten your alertness to keep you more aware of your surroundings and life stressors.

3. Burn more calories at rest– With each session of resistance training you breakdown muscle fibers. During rest and recovery more energy is used to rebuild the broken down muscle fibers. This results in more calorie utilization.

Where are you in your journey to stay healthy, fit, and blow off steam during these times? What do you struggle with when it comes to your fitness?
