The Top 5 excuses why people don't exercise:

Hey Champion,

The Top 5 excuses why people don't exercise:

1. "I don't have time to exercise."
Make an appointment with yourself to exercise.

2. "There isn't a gym close to my house."
Power-walk for 40 minutes.

3. "I don't know how to exercise."
Exercise isn't rocket science. Do a Google search for options and tips.

4. "I have no energy to exercise."
Of course, if you sit around all day doing nothing you will feel lazy. Get up off the couch and get moving!

5. "I have no one to work out with."
For most of us it would be nice to have some company. If you absolutely cannot work out alone...hire a trainer, participate in an exercise class, or take your furry friend for a walk.

May my meditation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the LORD. Psalm 104:34

Have you thought about the Lord during the last minute, the last hour, the last six hours, or the last 24 hours?

God will keep you in perfect peace, if your mind is stayed on Him. Isaiah 26:3

Romans 8:6 says the mind controlled by the Spirit is full of life and peace. Who controls your mind?

Exercise of the week: set your cell phone alarm to go off every hour and then pray, meditate or think about the Lord for 60 seconds.

The peace of God, which transcends all understanding,

will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7

You Are A Champion

Sean before @ 505 pounds!!!

I was always searching for a simple means to lose weight, while completely ignoring the habits and behaviors that kept me near, at, or above 500 pounds for almost 20 years. I simply suppressed those habits and behaviors long enough to enjoy temporary results on whatever plan I was doing at the moment, then I'd gain it all back when I returned to my old ways.

Sean after losing 258 pounds!!!

I eat what I like, and never anything I don't. I've lost 258 pounds and I haven't had a single salad. The difference is in the portion sizes, and that's what this approach has taught me; for the first time, I know what a normal portion of anything really looks like.

5 Reasons to Exercise

5 Reasons to Exercise
It's not just about losing weight...

If you're like most people, you start exercising with one or two goals in mind: losing weight, or shaping up. But there are many more benefits:

1. People who exercise live longer, on average, than people who don't.

2. Active people have a lower risk of dying from heart disease and stroke, and they're less likely to get high blood pressure.

3. The more active you are, the lower your risk of colon cancer.

4. The less active you are, the higher your risk of getting type 2 diabetes. If you already have type 2 diabetes, exercise can lower your blood sugar levels.

5. In people with arthritis, moderate exercise helps reduce joint swelling and pain and improves mobility.
