Exercise before work!
Exercise is the biggest way of getting yourself to prolong your life as many people have since attested. It is therefore important to workout even when you begin work or school. In today’s edition we give you reason why ought to exercise before work or school.
Train your body instead of your coffee maker
Considering the amount of coffee shops on each street corner, we can be reasonably sure that caffeinated drinks such as coffee and tea are here to stay. If we, as a society, need a stimulant to get us through the mornings, the healthier way. Starting out the day with 30 minutes of cardiovascular or strength training will wake you up better than a cup of coffee will.
If you agree with me, let’s break the caffeine addiction. Set your alarm for 30 minutes earlier than normal, and right when it rings roll out of bed, walk to the bathroom, and wash your face. Wake up. Then, start doing exercises for 30 minutes. Do it for 30 days, and let me know your results in the comments section below. I guarantee you’ll feel great.

3. Exercising improves mood and lowers stress
Stress in the workplace today is a chronic problem. Stress wrecks havoc on the mind and body and is a strong precursor to depression, heart disease and infectious diseases. Eliminating, or simply reducing, stress is one of the healthiest actions a person can take.
4. Improve job performance
Workers who exercise regularly experience an improved ability to concentrate, make complex decisions, and to even reduce workplace related injuries.
It’s the day in, day out high performance that leads to promotions and better job opportunities.
Exercising after work is difficult as there are always distractions, obligations, and an increasing amount of work one must commit to.
5. Create a healthy habit for life
Daily exercise is one of the best long-term habits a person can make. Even 30 minutes of exercise before work will leave you energized, clear headed, stronger, and more able to take on the stress of the day.
Creating this habit requires only one simple step – you must do it every day. Even if it’s only 10 minutes each morning to start, consistency will provide the best improvements and lay the groundwork for a lifelong habit.
Exercise is important. Do it
Exercise is one of those activities that everybody tells us we should do, yet many people find it difficult to find the time. Exercising after work is difficult as there are always distractions, obligations, and an increasing amount of work one must commit to.
In the mornings, however, there are no excuses. The only decision is whether to get up and exercise, or press the snooze button for an extra 30 minutes. Sleep is important. But the benefits of daily exercise are so numerous that I think it’s a no-brainer tradeoff to make.
Give it a try for 30 days. If you don’t feel noticeably less fatigued and stressed, snooze away guilt free
