Wrong. The gym gives you something you’re obviously taking for granted and that’s the potential for being healthy and maybe even swol out of your mind, and a chance to enjoy memes between reps. And if you’re looking for a venue, look no further than this Facebook page. It is home to 3.8 million followers who tune in on the daily ever since mid 2012 when the page was created. Same goes with everything else. If we don’t move enough, our body will assume we don’t really need to as much. And so our muscles will grow weaker to preserve energy for everything else that’s crucial for our survival. Heck, if you don’t challenge your brain with puzzles and the like, that same thing might happen too. And besides not wanting to end up not being able to support your own weight, it has other benefits too. Benefits like increased energy levels, boosted mood and overall attitude, and, physically speaking, your body becomes more resilient. Sure, it hurts in the beginning, and might continue depending on how hard you go, but that is exactly what strengthens your body. Another thing to note is that you’re doing this for yourself. So, don’t compare yourself to anyone else. This is about you, not your peers. On top of that, they would make sure that you wouldn’t sustain any injuries—and if you end up doing so, they will help you recover and guide you back into getting ripped. The easiest way to approach this is by walking. Yes, walking enough per day, i.e. for roughly 30 minutes a day (or somewhere between 8,000 and 10,000 steps) can have significant positives on your heart and other organs. Heck, taking up something as simple as jogging, dancing or yoga would do wonders. Throw in a healthier diet and you’re set. And if you want more sports scrollables, you’re welcome.
