4 REASONS TO TAKE YOUR FITNESS MORE SERIOUSLY

May 26, 2020

Only one in three adults get the recommended amount of physical exercise each week.

This worrying trend is to blame for numerous lifestyle diseases that cost lots of money to manage without mentioning the misery of not enjoying life to the fullest.

Investing in your fitness has a myriad of benefits that extend beyond looking and feeling good.

Need more incentives to help you get into a long-term fitness program? Here are four more reasons to put more thought into it.

1. To Improve Productivity

The workplace is nothing like it’s been before.

Everything is more competitive, technology keeps changing operations and processes, and recruiters only want to retain the most productive workforce.

For professionals, this demands increased mental focus and longer working hours.

Studies have shown that higher fitness levels can improve concentration, help people complete tasks faster, and can increase motivation.

Indeed most renowned entrepreneurs will often mention the importance of a workout regimen when talking about their success.

Try to work out in the morning before you hit the office to get the most out of this.

2. It Can be an Income Earner

The health and fitness industry has grown significantly in the last couple of years.

With this growth comes numerous opportunities for people to earn an income. You can either get into this on a full-time basis or a side hustle to make a few extra dollars on the side.

Personal fitness training and influencing are some popular ways of making money. However, your success in any of these fields will largely depend on your fitness levels.

Yes, passion alone is not enough. You must have something to show for it.

For example, clients looking for a fitness trainer will likely want a fit candidate to show them the ropes. Fitness certification also goes a long way in rubber stamping your credibility as a fitness trainer.

Companies that might come to you to be an influencer on health supplements, sports gear, and so on, will also need their influencer to look the part.

3. You Can Enjoy a Better Sex Life

Working out does more than just increasing your flexibility; it can help you look good.

And looking and feeling good can make you feel more comfortable and confident in bedroom matters.

It goes beyond the aesthetics, however.

In one study, the University of California found that regular exercise helps men experience more satisfying orgasms and a higher frequency of intimate activities.

The University of Texas had an equitable study on the fairer sex. The findings concluded that exercise increases psychological arousal in women.

A healthy sex life can go a long way in strengthening a relationship.

4. To Enjoy a More Relaxed Life

Exercising signals the body to release endorphins, which trigger a number of psychological reactions.

Key among these is the feeling of euphoria that relaxes the mind and helps you feel more positive-happier even.

Endorphins, much like analgesics, also diminish feelings of pain.

Today's society tends to support pill-popping as the first go-to for many psychological issues. While this might be necessary in some cases, it's definitely not the only solution.

Working out has been proven to keep depression and stress at bay. If for nothing else, getting on a regular work out program can be your natural prophylaxis against a number of psychological problems.

Get Moving

In a nutshell, getting yourself on a regular workout schedule and sticking with it has numerous benefits.

It can put money in your pocket, significantly improve your sex life, help with your career goals, and even make you feel happier.

These benefits are indeed difficult to fore-go.
