Exercise and physical activity habits

<p>Ep #148 - Mental health is very much tied to your body getting a good burn, or sweat, or your heart getting up there so you know its pumping hard for you. When you feel sad, or depressed, or down, get out there and get your body moving. I am not saying that will solve everything but it definitely will get you out of your head and into your body right then and there.</p> <p>Let's do some quick math. I know, I know...awwww math! Seriously, quick math. You graduate high school at whatever weight you graduate at. Over the next four years you put on 20 pounds. You leave school and then start adding on 1-2 pounds a year. By 30 you are 20-30 pounds heavier than high school graduation day. By 40 you are 30-50 pounds heavier and on, and on, and on.</p> <p>Life is not all about looks but life is about being physically able to do things in a way that you don't tax your heart just walking up stairs. Some of y'all are gonna be like, "dude, I work out." Great, that is awesome. In college I did not and yet at 46-years-old I am in the best shape of my life.</p> <p>You will do what you do and you will care about and prioritize what you care and prioritize. This episode is to open your mind that being active and/or going to the gym is about being a "meat-head." You want be as healthy as you can be so you can be the best version of yourself when you need to double or triple your work time to get that big project in on time, or hit the books and have your mind firing on all cylinders.</p> <p>Just hit play and let's dive in with our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now.</p> <p>It is time. It has been time. To live is to shine. Step into the SUN.</p> <p>Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, I will call on you.</p> <p>********************************************</p> <p>Thank you so much for listening and being a part of my tribe and this wonderfully supportive community.
