A while ago I conducted a non-scientific (but still eye-opening!) poll.
I asked a bunch of people who had a regular workout routine WHY they exercised.
Their answer: The mood and mental health benefits!
There is REAL science to back that up. We usually associate cardio with lifting your spirits, but it turns out strength training is also a MAJOR mood and mental health booster.
Studies show that strength training can help with:
Less anxiety
Lower depression
Sharper thinking
Better memory
More energy & less chronic fatigue
Better sleep
More confidence and self-esteem
Plus an even longer list of physical health benefits
Still, if you’ve never tried strength training before, getting started can seem a little intimidating. Remember, it is always better to start out small and do just what you can do at first. No reason to push at the beginning. Just get your mind and mood happier.
I hope this helps give you some inspiration to start. Not for weight loss, but for feeling good. Reach out to me if you need help getting started.
