I Don't Wanna
Reasons not to exercise are numerous. Some feel that their body has been through so much that it can’t stand the impact of working out. Others feel tired and question whether or not they have the energy to exercise. Still others state they just don’t have the time. An understanding of the benefits of exercise is helpful. Strong muscles protect bone and might even limit the risk of fracture. Good circulation might reduce the risk of blood clots. Exercise encourages the flow of lymphatic fluids, hopefully improving the immune system by eliminating toxins. Exercise produces adrenaline, which acts as a natural decongestant that can help clear sinuses and bronchial airways.

Books on fitness and exercise often state that “all” one needs to do to be physically fit is to work out for 20 minutes 4 times a week. For many of you, that goal might seem impossible. For some of you, it took years to get out of shape and it’s going to take a while to get into good physical condition.
