WORKOUT is my PASSION
Having my workout everyday gives me enough vitality. I feel so powerful! YAY! Ha ha ha.
Yes, because it animates my body, it helps me feel lighter and I don't feel tired doing the household chores.
Being a full-time housewife/mother is a very stressful job. You have to do lots of things the whole day and even at night. As a mother my resting time is just bed time. Sometimes we forget about pampering ourselves because we prioritize more our family and our daily tasks as a mother. But when I started having a workout a lot of things changed. I learned how to make a time management. Everything are in order. Workout helps me relieve the stress and it gives me relaxation not just physically but mentally. After doing my workout I felt like my body renewed even my inner self.
My first engagement in workout was, when I was in college. I need to get fit because I was taking Bachelor of Science in Criminology. Every Saturday we have a Judo and Taekwondo a DefTac or Defense Tactics classes. Every morning I need to do cardio-exercise such as jogging,running, and swimming. I need to have strong muscles because our final grading was based in our sparring performance. The feeling of pressure and intense was there but it was exciting.
I am very thankful for that experienced because I gained self discipline and it increased my self confidence. But sadly, I didn't able to finish my study. After I stopped my college, my environment began to change. I've worked different kinds of job.
Then I got married.
After I gave birth to my child and I am not getting any younger as well, so it is normal to have this changes in my body. I have all kinds of muscle pain especially from the lower back. I am being stressful. I am moody most of the time and high-tempered, and gets easily tired.
I have seen many healthy tips and even exercises on Television but it didn't give me the nerve to do it because I am giving my whole time to my family. But few years later, after I took my shower, I faced myself in the mirror and Ooh crap! suddenly I slacked off. I really felt so bad seeing my tummy sagging. It really looked nasty because I am not fat but I have this big sagging tummy and arms. 😂
So, that gave me the urge to do the workout.
I went back jogging (8-10Km.) at the age of 34 but not regularly. Then I met new friends which became my jogging buddy.
Then late 2016. We enrolled at the gym. Everyday we were trained 2hrs., One hour for Cardio Session and an hour for Weight Machine Circuit. At first it was unruly and even excruciating because we really intensely exercising. I have a goal that is why I have to take it seriously and aside from that we payed for it. Ha ha.
I find fitness really fun, particularly when my body learns how to do various exercise movements and my strength and stamina improved.
After almost four (4) months at the gym. I learned how to execute those equipments especially dumbbells. I want my arm become firm so I badly needed dumbbells for my workout so I bought (2) two pairs of it one is 2lb and the other pair is 7lb. I also have my skipping rope and stationary bike for my cardiovascular exercise. These are all affordable. You can buy it and do exercise in your home. You can search in YouTube the workout you want that is suitable to your needed body shape up.
I decided to do it at home so I can save money and no need for me to rush going at the gym anymore because I can now actually do it at home whenever I'm not busy.
Workout is one of my daily routine until now. I take it as one of my best hobbies.
I am not proficient but I know some executions which really helps me obtain energy.
I love doing exercise because the benefits of it are far more than just losing weight or achieving that “bikini body.” Exercise benefits everything from your sleep quality to your energy level, and even your memory. From making you happier to helping you live longer, regular exercise is key to living a healthy, balanced life.
After having my workout I feel better. I have more pleasant feelings. Such as:
- feeling happy
- feeling energetic
- feeling young
- alertness
Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lung health improve, you have more energy to tackle daily chores.
Not only that it helps you looking young, beautiful and sexy that caused to increase your self-esteem.
So guys, I encourage you all. Let us do workout as a hobby to prevent all kinds of sickness and also living a healthier and happier life.
I've been doing workout for (2) two years now and at the age of 38 I can say that I am healthy; physically, mentally, morally, and even spiritually.
Exercising is my stimulator. It keeps me moving and moving and moving and moving........ everyday. 😄
