If you take the time to research this subject will finds tons of post, videos, blogs and books that all say pretty much the same thing that exercise is really good for you. However maybe your not sure if it sets you up for success or not, after all, I have only shown you some resources to confirm regular exercise is good for you. How about I give you two examples and allow you to see for your self whether or not daily exercise set you up for success.

 

Example 1

Let’s say you are a single mother with two or three children. You work a fulltime job that you are required to start at 6 am. You get off work at 2:30 and have to run and pay a few bills or pick up some food before picking up the kids from school. You rush home to cook dinner and get your children ready for basketball, football, or volleyball practice. You get home at 7 pm and still have to help your children with homework all before they have to take showers and go to bed. It is now 9 pm your day has been nonstop and all you want to do is lay in front of the T.V. and not think or move. You end going to bed at 11 pm and getting up at 5 am to start all over again.

If you recognize this scenario it is okay this is a typical day for most parents especially a single parent. How could you possibly find time to exercise when you do not have time to eat right, sleep right or anything else right.

However, let me just say this is the mindset of overworked and under-supported people. But it has been proven time and time again that when you think and live this way that you will struggle with

  • Depression
  • Fatigue
  • Stress
  • Poor Diets
  • Poor sleeping Habits
  • Negative mindsets
  • Confusion
  • Reactive emotional State
  • Weight gain
  • Poor muscle strength

Among other issues. So what can you do differently to resolves these issues? Let’s look at the second example.

Example2

In scenario number one you got up for work at 5 am for work but what if, to get some exercise in you to get up at 4:15 am instead and get 30 minutes of exercise in every morning before jumping into your hectic day. You then went to work and did all the same things. After doing regular exercise for 14 days you start to notice that you are fitting you’re close better, your sleeping better and you are in an overall better mood. After 30 days you start to notice that you have more energy and things do not stress you out the same. You are even finding time to take care of your self in other ways.

I can already hear you but I do not want to get up 45 minutes earlier,5 am is early enough. Well for those of you who are not willing to give up 45 minutes of your sleep, what if you took a 30-minute walk on your lunch break rather then going to your local fast food restaurant for lunch.

And then again maybe you are not willing to give up your lunch hour but you would be willing to do 30 minutes at your local gym while your children are at practice. Any of these scenarios would work and have the same outcome. The point is to find time to put exercise into your day.

What Do You Think?

Out of the two examples which would you rather feel like? Example one where you are stressed out, overworked, undersupported, fatigued and overweight or scenario two where you are starting to sleep better, feel better, fit your closes better. The only difference between the two examples is 30 minutes of exercise. You might say” that’s nice I do not have the energy to get up 45 minutes earlier than I already wake up just to exercise. I do not want to give up my lunch break, I really just do not have time in my day for exercise. I would respond with, “you are not alone a lot of people feel that way”. Would you like to know the difference between the people that do exercises daily and you? They make the time whether they have it or not and so can you.

I would also like to give you some other thing you can also try that will help you improve your overall health which will aid you in finding that success.

Other Things That Help

Some other things to keep in mind when you are ready is to eat healthier. I am not saying you have to give up on anything. Just be mindful of what you are putting in your mouth. You will also want to pay attention to how much you are eating. I know that depending on the person when you are dealing with a lot of stress or fatigue you can either eat too much or eat too little. You should eat at least one meal a day but it is recommended to eat 3 small meals and two snacks per day.  

Another thing to be mindful of is what you are drinking. Too many sugary drinks can do a lot of damage to your body and there have been studied that show it affects your ability to think clearly. You should be trying to drink up to 75% of your body weight in water a day. When you do this your body will look and feel much better.

One final tip, You should be trying to get at least 6 hours of sleep daily and when possible 8 hours. You will feel so much better when you are rested. Let alone you will be amazed at just how much better your skin will look, How much better you will be able to handle the stress of the day. I know all of these can be really hard to do but you should really try. To do any of these you will see and feel improvement, too do all three you will feel and look like a new person.

Final Thoughts

I would say that ‘Yes’ Daily exercise set you up for success. In all the research hopefully, you will see just how important it really is to take care of yourself. You can start with 30 minute of exercise and build to eating and drinking correctly or at least better then you are today. Before you know it you will be sleeping, eating and exercising the way you should and you will start to notice that you feel, look and think so much better.
