When you think about exercise what is the first thing you think?
Primarily, people tend to link exercise with the superficial, of how their bodies look. However, exercise is more than just looking good. If you solely base your success and self worth on the number on the scale you may miss many of the other amazing health benefits, which are right in front of you, that come through exercising regularly.

#1 Empowerment:
By incorporating a strength training into your exercise regime not only will get you feeling toned and strong, but also create a feeling of empowerment that comes through the increased ease of everyday activities. We have seen members start at DF who could not go grocery shopping with out their spouse because they had trouble unloading cases of water into their car. To being able to rearrange all the furniture in their house a few months later all because of functional resistance training.

#2 Happiness and Stress Relief:
"R-E-L-A-X", to quote Packers quarterback Aaron Rogers. Drop those shoulders that are up to your ears full of stress. Stress can eat you alive by forcing you to lose sleep, make poor nutrition choices, and spike blood pressure. Regular exercise can provide an outlet to release stress and not allow it to diminish quality of life and health. Exercising for you 45-minutes three times a week is all it takes to see a reduction in stress levels and improved mental health. Many times you can walk into the gym stressed out and drained to only walk out 45-minutes later rejuvenated. Just goes to prove, "The only workout you ever regret doing is the one you didn't do."

#3 Watch Your Children's Children Grow:
One of the most common goals we hear is wanting to be around for and enjoy their grandchildren as long as possible. Exercise can make that dream a reality. You will experience increased energy levels, improved overall health, improved balance, increased endurance, and increased bone density. All while giving you the ability to run, jump and get up off the floor with ease. People who regularly participate in functional resistance training tend to look and act 10 years younger than people of the same age who don't (you can't get that with jogging:).

#4 Improved Body Image:
We all want to feel confident in what we are wearing. There is nothing worse than spending hours at the mall trying on endless outfits, only to come home empty handed because we didn't like the way anything looked on you. You may not be the dress size you want to be YET, but exercise and proper nutrition will get you there. Exercise is a good way to boost your confidence, and lets face it we are all happier when we feel comfortable and confident in what we are wearing.
