feeling of vigor and excitement that exercise provides. With energy reserves you'll
be less likely to be in low spirits because you will have more enthusiasm and an ability
to do more each day. This may be hard to believe if you're currently living a
sedentary life, but you'll believe it when you experience it! |

| Here's the typical evolution I
see in so many people whey they first begin a regular aerobic program. Initially,
they are happily surprised to see inches leave their body. Next, they're excited
about new-found energy reserves. And then they're inspired to add a third and fourth
day of aerobic activity, even something as simple as walking. After attaining
aerobic benefits, they can't wait to expand their fitness horizons. |

| A cardiovascular system that has
been conditioned by aerobic exercise becomes more efficient and therefore can work harder
for you while expending less energy. This means that you will have energy left over
to do other things. Looking at this from another perspective, when you're not active
and are under business or personal stress (even the positive stress of happy excitement),
adrenaline tends to accumulate in the heart and brain. So, if you feel dragged out
after a hard day without exercise, it may be that your system is flooded with adrenaline.
An aerobic workout will counteract this excess buildup and leave you feeling
refreshed, replenished, and on top of things. |

| Twenty years from now you will
be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off
the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your
sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. |

- Mark Twain |
| Life is a great big canvas;
