9.#8 Regular Exercise Gives You a Boost of Confidence
How do you feel when you accomplish a goal? What does it feel like when you look in the mirror and like what you see? Confidence is the direct result of committing to an exercise program and following through. You begin to realize that you’re capable of anything you set your mind to.
And yes, vanity plays a little role in your confidence boost too. As you exercise your body will begin to change. You may lose weight, tone muscle, and start looking fantastic. However, those are only some of the cosmetic benefits.
A good night’s sleep and a healthy metabolism also help you achieve aglow that you just cannot get without exercise. Your complexion will improve, your eyes will look brighter and there will be an energetic spring in your step.
Sure, the confidence boost is a side benefit and probably not the primary reason to exercise. However, it’s also a benefit you wouldn’t want to give up.
What Exercises Boost Confidence?
To be honest, any exercise program will have the added benefit of boosting your confidence. However, if you’re good at a particular sport, for example weight lifting or volleyball, then you may enjoy a confidence boost when you do something well.
