6 Reasons to stick with your Fitness Routine thru the Holidays

#1 - Exercise has the ability to improve your immune system and help you fight off colds, flu and other infections. It can even help you recover faster from a minor infection. So don’t stop exercising just because you are a little bit under the weather.
Why Does Exercise Improve Immunity? No one really knows for sure, but there are a few theories:When you exercise, your body increases the speed at which it removes waste products."

# 2 - Increased immune function – cardio vascular conditioning makes your immune cells function better every day due to increased oxygen uptake

#3 -Cortisol flusher! Moderate exercise is a great way to flush coritsol (stress hormone) which can make us crabby, tired and hungry for sugar!
#4 - Fat burner! Proper exercise burns fat, lowering your risk of many diseases and conditions.


#5 - Happy hormone producer- exercise increases the amount of serotonin in our system which elevates our mood and helps us sleep better!
#6- Carbohydrate conserver - more fit you become the less carbohydrate you expend during exercise which means you have more energy for all those things you wish you had the energy to do!

Exercise is amazing so keep up the great work ladies!
