You may not be a runner just yet, but even the intention of working out makes us feel better about ourselves. Once we set the intention to work out, we get a self-esteem boost. If we actually get to the gym or lace up our running shoes and log in some miles or complete those sets, our self-esteem goes up even more. Accomplishing any goal increases our confidence and we are more likely to stick with it.  Increased confidence leads to all over good feelings, and you can’t have enough of those.

The time of day you work out seems to have an impact too. This study showed that an afternoon workout was better than a morning workout for quality and longer sleep.

On the other side, high-intensity interval training can have the opposite effect and can cause extreme physical fatigue and slow down your reactions. Moderate aerobic exercise works the best.

Losing weight is usually the first reason people start an exercise program, but working out for overall health and wellness can help you stay with it longer, especially when you reach your weight loss goals.

If you sustain an injury while working out or training, come to your nearest Neighbors Emergency Center for treatment. We are open 24/7, 365 days a year, and our board certified emergency physicians are experienced in treating sports injuries. We have on-site imaging facilities, so we can conduct X-rays, CT scans, and Ultrasound in our ER and get your results and diagnosis quicker than a hospital.
