Exercised Obsessed - Epsom Personal Trainer

Wed ,28/10/2009

I was talking with a friend not so long ago about the culture surrounding exercise, the blurring lines between exercise and sports training.

We concluded that you have two distinct types of personalities that exercise;

1) The “Go when I can be bothered” type, which means not very often, peer pressured into it.


2) The “It makes me feel so good I feel weird if I don’t go” crowd, which means addicted. Two very extreme approaches.

It seems people look at exercise as a means of pleasure or pain. Why not just look at it like sleeping, sure you can live without it but to function fully and be as amazing as the human can be, YOU NEED it.

A great book by a great author;

Exercise is no different, you can function and survive as a human without it - but why not thrive, with it.

With no more than 1 hour per week at the absolute maximum you can have all the benefits that exercise can bring and thrive. I promise.

Below is a link to a great author in the area of intelligent exercise for the purpose of health, function and thriving - whilst saving time. Any of his books will feed you more correct training knowledge than 90% of anything else out there.
