“Your body can stand almost anything. It’s your mind that you have to convince.” ~Andrew Murphy

✅ Remember to go all in with our FITMAS Challenge! You’re improving your mind and body!
This week, we’re talking about why fitness is so important when it comes to your health & wellness journey. Just in the last couple of weeks, we discussed your metabolism—and how muscle is one of the most important factors to consider for your metabolic health. With that said, you already know your fitness journey is important because when you strength train, you’re building muscle—and metabolic health! 💪
But aside from that, why else is it important?
Well, friends, that’s an answer that would take me a lifetime to write about. The benefits of working out are too numerous to cover in one week; therefore, I will do my best to break them down for you this week.
One reason your fitness journey matters so much is because of its effect(s) on your brain! 🧠
Here are the three most common and well-researched positive effects that regular exercise has on your brain:
🧠 Improved Mood & Reduced Depression/Anxiety
🧠 Sharpened Memory, Focus & Cognitive Function
🧠 Strong Protection Against Brain Aging & Neurodegenerative Diseases
For the sake of time, we’ll get into this topic a little deeper tomorrow, but as you can see, the benefits exercise has on your brain are serious matters, friends. It’s about more than building a great body. It’s about more than building healthy muscle tissue. Exercise and fitness play a huge role in the health of your brain—and your brain is your most powerful weapon! 💯
