Standing Tall Tuesday- “But, I’ve Just Never Likes Exercising.”

“But, I’ve Just Never Liked Exercising!”

I cannot tell you how many times I have heard this one in my career as a Pilates instructor and personal trainer.

I get it!  You don’t like exercising.  You don’t like to move.  You’d rather sit on the sofa and watch reruns of Andy Griffith. 

….Well, actually I don’t get it, but I try to be understanding anyway.

The cold hard truth is that our bodies were made to move and be active. Our bodies were made to push, pull, jump and climb.  I don’t expect all of this from all of my clients, but I do let each of them know they should be moving and challenging their bodies every day.

Did you know moving is one of the best things you can do for CONFIDENCE and your general MENTAL HEALTH?

👟We all know moving keeps us quick and nimble on our feet.  When we have better balance and agility they give us more confidence to move in the world.  We are able to focus more on the incredible word around us instead of each step we take.

👟 Moving helps to build stronger bones and muscles which help us to have better posture.  Wherever you are right now, stand up, place your hands on your hips, pull your shoulders back, lift your gaze and stand as tall as you can!  See what I mean?  Feels amazing, right!?!

👟 Moving releases endorphins that help you to feel good about yourself and your life!  And, it’s FREE!!!

So, I know you’ve just never liked exercising.  But, I’m here to tell you that if you start making it a daily habit, this thought will change!  You will begin to love it and crave it and your body will thank you with each step you take!💕
