(This made me laugh!)
When I was a kid, it used to really annoy me when I couldn’t spell something and my teacher would tell me to look it up in the dictionary. If I knew how to find it in the dictionary, I wouldn’t need to look it up! I’ll be honest – to this day, I’m still not a big fan of the system (thank goodness for spell check!), but I guess it makes a little bit more sense now than it did when I was eight. And, if you think about it, the relationship between exercise and energy works the same way: Exercise gives you energy, but you need energy to exercise.
But how are you supposed to get the energy to exercise if you need to exercise first to get energy?!
Before tackling that conundrum, let’s review two studies that prove this whole premise is even true:
Enjoyed the cartoon and I think we all can relate to the exercise/energy dilemma. At least for me I need to hear those case reports to convince my weary bones to get moving.
First, If you Give a Mouse a Cookie is my absolute FAVORITE book from childhood… love the reference! :-)
This is so true — whenever I’m feeling especially exhausted, I always think about how great it would feel to nap instead of go to the gym, however I always feel so much better when I suck it up and get a workout in!
I always feel better after a workout. :) That old statement is true…you never regret a workout! :)
Thanks girly!
I know! I’ve seen so many cute pictures on Pinterest that say: “Man I regret that workout – (Said Nobody EVER)” lol :) I think I might post one on here soon! :)
