in Fitness and Exercise
I finally got on the treadmill this morning after procrastinating and putting it off.......So I was thinking.....Here's my pat on the back to those of you who got up and DID IT even though you didn't feel like doing it! :drinker:

It's so ironic what an enemy our thoughts/mind can be in this whole process. With the same mind, we know that this exercise is what is best for us and it is SCREAMING at us the whole time, DON'T DO IT!!!!:laugh:

    If you persist soon your body will start craving the chemicals it produces during a good workout and you'll find it more cooperative when you need it to be for exercising.

    Great job!

    I think my body's broken. Mine doesn't produce those chemicals, or my head doesn't like them or something, cuz it never got easier. I still do it every day, but I doubt I'll ever love it. I'm a team sports kind of guy anyway, working out seems so...lonely to me.

    Yep, after doing this steady for 7 weeks my body really loves the working out. I can feel it around 10am when I'm sitting at my desk. It starts to say "Jessica, go to the gym, I want to move!"
