Why we don’t exercise

So what can we do about it?

Let’s look at some of the really the positive aspects of being physically active.

Wouldn’t you like to:

• Live longer and decrease your risk of heart disease and other chronic diseases of lifestyle?
• Lose weight or maintain a healthy weight?
• Improve your bone density and reduce your risk of osteoporosis and fractures?
• Feel more energetic?
• Be fitter and stronger?
• Decrease feelings of stress, anxiety and/or depression? If you are experiencing symptoms of depression please reach out to your Health Care Practitioner.
  
• Sleep better?
• Feel better about your body and about how you look?
• Be a good role model for your children and family?
• Discover new activities, explore opportunities and have more fun?

Now ask yourself:

Are there benefits that you find desirable that inspire you?

Are you prepared to tackle the barriers that have prevented you being active in the past?

If the answers to these two questions are YES, then you can get out of the rut of inactivity and start benefiting immediately!
