Exercise
Motivation is a key ingredient to successful exercise regime. To me exercise has become central to my 40 year battle with MS. Started regular exercise two years ago after purchasing a Bowflex, Max Trainer. It's there in my basement demanding to be used and I use it at least four times a week. The sessions take `15 minutes. I used to be a regular at our pool for a number of years. A thirty minute commute yielded easily to my Bowflex. You just have to look at me to appreciate the kind of success I'm experiencing with a dedicated exercise plan. Good luck to everyone. If your looking for motivation, just get started and continue with a fitness routine, give it one month. You will have a glimpse at the many benefits exercise has to offer.
, I am glad you started this thread! I hope it gets some traction and others chime in!
Motivation seems to be the key to many things in life. And just in case anyone here might feel that you have to run a mile or dead lift tons of weight -- no. Even having the motivation to do some gentle stretches or practice some meditation can have a positive impact on one's mental and physical health.
It's all about starting where you are and building on that.
Thanks again for sharing!
