Sweat It Out!
 

EXERCISE VS. WORKING OUT

For many, a New Year's Resolution is set to exercise more.

Oddly enough, I found the same dictionary definition for both 'exercise' and 'workout' which was:

-the activity of exerting your muscles in various ways to keep fit-

In my mind, Exercise is way different than 'Working Out'

  • When I think of exercise . . . I think of bike riding, walking, lawn maintenance and etc.


  • When I think of a work out . . . I'm thinking of weight lifting.. running, yoga, kick boxing and etc.


  • BOTTOM LINE:
    If you're not sweating - then it's NOT a work out!

    Anyway, thats NOT my New Year's Resolution . . . A good point the priest at my church made . . . was to focus not on something about yourself, but maybe the needs of other people.

    Great Suggestion!!!

    Helping people in need, make someone's day by making them smile, a simple gesture or favor, running an errand, or spending more time with family... etc.

    Personally, I would like to make people laugh more . . .(I just envy people that are witty).

    I've been working on my sense of humor lately . . . but by the expressions on friends and family's faces . . . I don't think it's working. . . yet . . . but I'm gonna try to get better at it . . .

    DON'T LAUGH!!! I mean . . . Yes . . . Laugh . . . or at least Smile. :)
