01/13/2008 | Getting outside a bit and doing something is always a good idea. Especially if you work graves and your starting to look like a vampire *grumble grumble grumble*

03/10/2005 | Well all of us exercise geeks as someone so geekingly put it, simply want to retain our youth. Yes it is driven by narcicism to a certain extent, but it also helps project confidence and self respect which are all part of my happiness. I must say while everything can be overdone there will always be people who find a way of snubbing what they dont have the dicipline or self respect to do for themselves. We humans need to reward ourselves. Staying in shape is simply one of those ways to raise our quality of life. There is nothing geeky about it. I believe that word was invented for those who are under developed or not well built. Those kind of soft and lazy folks tend to be very boring.

03/09/2005 | This may come as a shock to the exercise geeks, but you really don't have to become obsessed by exercise and huge amounts of physical activity to live a long life. My grandmother lived to be 102 and I sincerely doubt she ever entered a gym. I see the benefit in walking and some light weight training to tone up. But for the most part I think that the exercise craze is just another bill of goods we've been sold. Get into sports and running if it floats your boat but personally this kind of thing just bores me to tears and always has.

03/09/2005 | Essential for health not happiness but if you don't do it you won't be happy as long.

12/09/2004 |  Essential to happiness? Nah. Very few things are essential to happiness. But I'll tell you this. I exercise 6 days a week, and only don't that 1 day for my body's sake. Every other part of me would prefer it. Once it moves out of the chore realm and is a bit of a habit, it becomes essential to the day the way I see it. There's this extra energy waiting to get out, this tension to be released, this part of the day that needs to be made better. Without exercising, I feel sluggish and like I'm endorsing the lifestyle that so many Americans have to falsely 'enjoy.' Just try it. Not for a day, or a month. Maybe once you get to year, you'll understand its benefits and that they're for more than your body. I've found that exercise allows me to think more clearly. While relieving tension, it also forces you to exercise different parts of your brain. There's a lot of scientific theory behind the idea that exercising different parts of the brain increases mental ability, or mental 'fitness' if you will.

12/08/2004 | I wouldn't say essential to happiness, but running for me has been one of my outlets. Running allows me to clear my mind and I love to punish my body into submission (sound demented huh?), Other than God, I would have to say running saved my life. I live in a dirt poor neighborhood where violence is rampant and running allows me to escape. Running kept me away from drugs and many other derogatory things. I truly believe in my heart my ability to run and run damn well I might add is undoubtedly a gift from God.

04/26/2004 | Incredibly important. I'm always happiest in the summer when it is mountain-climbing season, and I try to get out and up as often as possible.

04/22/2004 | Gotta love that rush of endorphins, that gives people a runner's high. There's nothing like a good workout to release these endorphins, which will lower pain and bring some feelings of euphoria. (Dating tip: people tend to become a little hornier during shared exercise, too.) Aside from the immediate lift in mood, becoming physically healthier fosters more pleasant regular moods that carry over from day to day. Of all the rushes you can get addicted to, runner's high is by far the healthiest.

04/22/2004 | I had a biology class last semester and the guy was telling us one day about all the effects exercise has on the brain that are similar to the effects of numerous illicit drugs. I believe it because I exercise every day and on the rare occassions that I'm not able to for one reason or another I really don't feel up to par. It's as if my body has to have it every day now. In fact I just got back from a good run and I'm feeling pretty d*mn good.

04/22/2004 | When I go without exercise for a day or two, I begin losing energy and start feeling bad. It's essential to good health. Unless if you enjoy ill health, this is essential to happiness.
