In some ways, the best reason to focus
on fitness is laziness. Laziness
loves efficiency, because it leaves more room for sleeping in and reading and
cuddling.
Fitness saves time. Time spent exercising is an investment. It makes us healthier, which gives us
more years to live in and a better quality of life during those years. We get to spend fewer hours in doctors’
offices. We don’t waste hours
staring at the ceiling trying to fall asleep.
Fitness saves money. Many fitness pursuits are cheap in
themselves. Almost all of them are
cheaper than therapy and doctors.
When we maintain our weight, we don’t have to spend money on bigger
clothes. When we maintain our
moods through fitness, we don’t have to do retail therapy.
Fitness can save our lives. Sometimes this is literal. Fitness correlates with reduced risk of
all kinds of nasty diseases. In a
more figurative sense, it can save our lives from stress, boredom, and
depression.
Work out so you can be lazy!
