8 reasons to work out that AREN’T weight loss

applied fitness helps clients lose weight

 

A while ago I conducted a non-scientific (but still eye-opening!) poll.

I asked a bunch of people who had a regular workout routine WHY they exercised.

A lot of these people were in their 60s, 70s, and beyond, and most of them had been working out for decades. (for 5 Workout Secrets Read THIS )

Their answer: The mood and mental health benefits!

There is REAL science to back that up. We usually associate cardio with lifting your spirits, but it turns out strength training is also a MAJOR mood and mental health booster.

Studies show that strength training can help with:

  • Less anxiety
  • Lower depression
  • Sharper thinking
  • Better memory
  • More energy & less chronic fatigue
  • Better sleep
  • More confidence and self-esteem
  • Plus an even longer list of physical health benefits

Still, if you’ve never tried strength training before, getting started can seem a little intimidating.

That’s why in The Applied Fitness Method we custom-design a simple, proven plan (your plan) thats catered just for you.

So, how much sleep do you need? Aim for 7-9 hours of quality sleep each night. Create a relaxing bedtime routine, ensure your sleep environment is dark and quiet, and limit screen time before bed. By prioritizing sleep, you'll support your body's ability to recover from workouts, burn fat, and build muscle. So, next time you're feeling frustrated with your fitness progress, consider whethe...
