I’ve seen many a list refer to the positives of working out, getting fitter and providing yourself with a healthier lifestyle.
While you have to bring your own reasons to the table as to why you are training or want to train – I enjoy hearing about the benefits of people’s successes.
Within 5 months of training I’ve seen / felt the following: –
• Confidence
So much is placed on creating a body that will give you more self belief.
And Yes, that is true – I feel more confident about my body, be it my shape or making my left side stronger. In addition, the self belief it can provides goes beyond the prospect of a ripped torso – the evidence of getting stronger can do wonders for your self-esteem and sense of achievement.
You feel great, I get a spring in my step as soon as I get out of the gym in the mornings and sets me right up for the day
• Energy
The surge in my energy levels has been very noticeable, pretty much since week two. The diet had changed and tweaked, it’s very disciplined with the right foods for my increased need for more energy. It also amazes that you can work out hard for an hour and have this natural buzz as you walk away ready to tackle anything! – which leads nicely onto…
• Productivity
I strongly believe it’s increased my productivity both at work and at home. I’m more alert which bodes for creativity.
A strong mind and body has worked wonders in every aspect of my life over the last 5 months. The question I keep asking myself is this – if I feel this good now – what’s it going to be like in a year?
No matter how big the steps that you take, moving in the right direction in tune to match your goals will leave you feeling so enriched and provide you with such a positive framework, you’ll never want to quit.
Go and achieve that goal!
