monday motivation: get movin’!

Posted on May 23, 2011 in Fitness, Motivation

For the longest time, I associated exercise with weight loss—I think a lot of people do. But in the past few years, I’ve started to appreciate exercise for its benefits beyond a smaller number on the scale. Moving more makes me happier, stronger and healthier. When I’m consistently exercising, I get sick less, I sleep better and I am a better person to be around.

  1. This is why I’m going to start running! I want to start exercising to feel better in general. Gonna try for my first 5K in July!

  2. I totally, 100% agree with you. Exercise is so good for your physical and (especially for me) mental health. I use exercise- yoga, strength training, aerobics, as my stress busters and as a chance for some “me time.”

  3. I absolutely LOVE This quote! Thanks for sharing!

  4. Wonderful quote and site. One of the many reasons I am trying to move more through out the day.

  5. What a spot on quote! Reading this makes me want to hit the gym.

    • This is one of my favorite quotes for whenever I’m tempted to skip the gym because I’m busy.

Yay! I love comments! What I don't love? Personal attacks, rudeness or general yuckiness, so keep it cool, kids. Don't see your comment immediately? That's probably 'cuz it's being held in moderation. I'll release it from jail as soon as possible. Required fields are marked *
