“Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body; it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.” -John F. Kennedy

We know exercise is important for a healthy body, but we often overlook how important exercise is for your cognitive and mental well-being.

Earlier we talked about workout anxiety. This is a healthy anxiety and a great way to build mental toughness. 

And of course there is the stress relief component of exercise. We were not designed to live in a state of constant stress. Exercise is an essential part of managing stress, increasing self-esteem and stabilizing your mood.

Look beyond the number on the scale and focus on how exercise makes you feel. You are more likely to stick with an exercise program when you focus on intrinsic motivators rather than extrinsic ones.
