ARE YOU LOOKING AFTER YOURSELF?

by Sue Wells (C2K Master Trainer)

We hear it all the time. We should live a healthy life, get fit and eat well. The question goes begging... why?

Well, here are the top ten reasons to get fit and eat well;

1. Our health will improve so we will be able to do what we want for longer.
2. Our strength will increase so we will have less pain, (the bad kind), for longer
3. We will look better and, in some cases, younger.
4. We will have better quality of life at whatever age we are.
5. Our sleep patterns will improve enabling our brains to “reboot”. We will handle stress and manage appetite control better.
6. We won’t store as much body fat.
7. We will have a higher sense of self worth, feel and look more confident.
8. We can have more friends if we exercise in a group situation which improves our quality of life.
9. We will be able to think more clearly and make better decisions.
10. We will have fewer sick days.
