Physical Fitness takes commitment to exercise just as it requires good nutrition. But it doesn’t have to be painful.  Just the opposite: vigorous exercise actually is stimulating. It boosts your energy levels, invigorates your mind, and just feels good afterward. The hardest part, of course, is getting started.
