The best part about training is the overwhelming feeling of wellbeing afterwards!
The scientific community accepts and fully supports now the notion that you cannot be healthy and maintain healthy levels of body fat without doing both-training AND eating well.
This is how slimming clubs fall down every time. They don’t give you that great feeling of wellbeing afterwards. When losing weight Is your sole aim, you tend to forget all the enjoyable things you should be experiencing along the way.
Exercise will give you real long lasting healthy results, scientific research tells us that slimming clubs lead to you putting all the weight back on, PLUS another 5%!!! To me and most other people who rely on science, exercise is an absolute must!!
When you exercise and eat healthily in sensible portions, you will lose body fat no doubt but there are so many other benefits. Blood pressure normalization, healthy skin tone, strong lungs and heart, feeling good 24 hours a day, fitting into your favourite clothes for the first time in years, people giving you compliments on the way you look, etc etc are all good examples of what a proper exercise programme will give you.
So if on a cloudy, wet and miserable November day you are at all feeling sorry for yourself, then a good solid effort in your workout will sort a lot of those feelings out, and immediately give you the feeling that you are about to have a better day!
