Hey guys, you wouldn’t guess what?? Your girl has Covid19 and I have been battling it for nearly two weeks. The worst thing about this was the fact that prior to becoming unwell, I had just successfully ventured back into my morning exercise and was really ready to begin toning up and sculpting my body. (Because summer bodies are made in the Autumn/Winter period!) So you can imagine; I am feeling pretty crappy that I haven’t been able to get up and exercise for quite a while now. What’s worse; and believe me, it can get much worse. As I type this, I am feeling woozy and like death. I am fighting back hard and am so desperate to just go to sleep for the 100th time today because the only time I feel okay is when I am laying down and falling asleep. I am also gutted that I am back to work tomorrow; because as much as my bosses have been AMAZING to me. I still don’t feel able to work. Though, until I am married off and have a husband to help manage my load; it’s back out to work I go.
However, nothing was going to stop me from posting this blog as I am totally obsessed with fitness again; watching endless YouTube videos and plotting out my return. For those of you who are well and are not battling any nasty viruses, I want to encourage you to step into your fitness regime if you haven’t yet started. You don’t have to do too much to make a massive difference to not only your health but your overall mood.
Just 30 minutes of exercise a day is enough to improve your health and overall physical appearance drastically. If you are lacking in motivation and in need of some inspiration to get started on your summer body whether you’re working out at home, in the gym or in the park alone, or with a friend, here are 8 reasons that will help to get you moving and keep you moving..
1 Improve Your Appearance: If you are need to lose some weight and get toned then physical exercise will not only help you to look but feel better.
2 More Energy: One of the major benefits of exercising is the fact that it’ll ultimately leave you feeling more energized. Studies have shown that regular exercise helps to reduce fatigue.
3 Mood Improver: A natural high! Every time you exercise your body will release endorphins that help to make you feel good.
4 Improve Your Overall Health: There are so many health benefits of losing weight that it’s impossible to list them all here! By getting fit you’ll reduce the risk of diabetes, cancer, high blood pressure, stroke, heart disease and much more.
5 Sleep Better: When you exercise more you’ll start to find it easier to get a good night’s rest. This adds to the energy boost that you’ll get from exercise in the long term.
6 Increase Your Strength and Stamina: Do you find it hard to go on long walks, or a struggle taking a short flight of stairs instead of the elevator? Exercise more and you’ll eventually be able to handle these activities with ease.
8 Reduce Stress: Exercise can hugely reduce stress levels. If you regularly suffer from stress – or even mental heath issues such as depression and anxiety – regular exercise can help to reduce your symptoms.
So there you have them, 8 inspiring reasons to get moving. When you start to exercise and see the improvements you’re making week on week, you’ll also get the feeling that you’re achieving something worthwhile and closer to getting that honed summer body you desire. How much you’ll need to work out to feel these benefits of exercising? That will depend on your current fitness levels.

This is especially true when your parents get to a certain age. With that said, as our loved ones age, the need for additional support may arise, and introducing the idea of a caregiver can be a sensitive matter. You’ve probably seen it in plenty of shows and movies (like The Sopranos) where the elderly parent just outright rejects the help.
