A good many of us focus too much on the weight loss aspect of exercise. There are plenty of other reasons to invest a little time on exercise.

1. Better Sex
Physical activity sends more blood to all parts of our body, which improves our response to sexual stimulation. Looking better and feeling stronger definitely doesn’t hurt in the bedroom.

2. Better Sleep

As long as you don’t exercise two hours before bed, you’ll get better, deeper sleep if you exercise regularly.

3. Less Stress
The more you exercise, the better you’ll cope with anxiety, stress and depression. The production of endorphins stimulates happy positive feelings.

4. More Brain Cells
Exercise drives more oxygen to feed your brain, making you think more quickly and clearly.

5. More Confidence
Exercise is a confidence builder both physically and emotionally – you feel better about yourself.

6. Toned, Defined Muscles
The more you exercise the stronger and healthier your muscles will become, and the better they’ll serve you. It’s not all about healthy weight loss – building healthy mass is another exercise benefit.

7. Clear Skin
Regular physical activity promotes circulation and sends nutrients to your skin, leading to less acne and a better complexion.

8. Stronger Immune System
Regular exercise helps combat free radicals, and you sweat out toxins. Lower blood pressure, lower cholesterol levels and a lower heart rate help you ward off ill health.

9. More Energy

You’ll notice this right away, as increased energy increases your ability to enjoy almost everything else in life.

10. Chocolate
Exercising regularly allows you that occasional guilt-free chocolate – go for it!
