We really need to normalise exercising and eating well for reasons other than losing weight or building huge amounts of muscle. I’ve started going to the gym recently to relieve stress and help me sleep but despite the fact that I fit into shirts and skirts in size small, I’ve been asked if I’m trying to lose weight numerous times.
Here’s a list of non-aesthetic reasons to exercise:
- relieves stress
- keeps you healthy
- improves sleep
- can have a positive effect on mental health
- makes you stronger and fitter
- something to focus on other than work/school/uni
- IT’S RECOMMENDED AS PART OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
