You Will Not Believe How Good It Works — Unless You Try It!

If you are one of the (not so many) people who loves to exercise and enjoys it, this article is not for you.

This is for people who, like me, are more on the lazy side — maybe a bit or a lot overweight, knowing we should exercise for our health and maybe to assist weight loss (and yes, you absolutely CAN lose weight without exercise — it is just harder).

We don’t get the often-touted “endorphin boost” or “runners’ high” while exercising. We just sweat and get tired. Right?

So here is the “naked” truth:

Some of us hate exercise. We seem to get nothing but dread out of it. The thought of sweating and going to the gym makes us cringe and we want to go to a sandy beach instead and just relax while listening to the soothing sound of ocean waves and dreaming…. (and certainly not of working out in a gym!!!)

Yet so-called “experts” tell us to just go to the gym and exercise. Our body needs exercise, they say. It’s easy, they say. Just get motivated and do it.
