Why You Shouldn't Skip Your Workout

Exercise can be divisive. Either you hate it or love it. Most people associate exercise with weight loss. If you're not looking to lose weight or have no motivation exercise is something you avoid.

Even people that love working out struggle. Many who work out regularly make themselves. Exercise can be hard to fit into a schedule. I prefer to neglect a few chores or errands than skip a workout.

Exercise maintains health and physical wellness. Skip your workouts or not exercising for a long time can have dire consequences. Even if you're thin, you may still have visceral fat that could lead to high blood pressure and diabetes. Thin inside fat outside is a real thing.

Need encouragement to lace up and hit the gym or go for a brisk walk? I am providing links to the scientific aspects. Using layman's terms make more of an impact.

Consider heart disease when you exercise your heart gets a workout too. Not your muscles workout too. The heart is the most important muscle in our body. We need the heart to be healthy to deliver blood through our circulatory system. 

Do you want to prevent Osteoporosis? Lift weights to help increase your bone density.  Men can get Osteoporosis too. Many do not know this. Strength training helps.
