THE EXERCISE FACTOR

Many people tend to believe that exercise is comprised of much huffing and puffing.  What a crock!  Every little thing that you do through movement translates to 'bursts of exercise'.  

Any activity that you incorporate into your daily schedule is effective in keeping your body in a healthier stance.  Simply moving makes you feel better!

YES - our Goddess Bodies do require aerobic exercise to strengthen our hearts, our muscles and our tushies. So the more involved that you become with say....a 15 minute brisk walk - the stronger and more efficient your body becomes.

Standing burns more calories than sitting, sitting burns more calories than laying down - and so forth.  However, be mindful that many ungoddess-like men have sown these false seeds:

"Having sex burns up a tremendous amount of calories."  

Yes, sex does burn calories, but the amount is minimal and sex must be intense.  Of course, you're a Weight Loss Goddess, and sex is always intense, right?  Right.

When Exercise Isn't So Much Fun

Unlike men, women cycle. Men can cycle, but require an apparatus to do such.  

When the Weight Loss Goddess cycles, participating in ultra strenuous exercise will generally make her 'flow' flow more.

In fact, many years ago, it was known as The Great Flood.  

Therefore, exercising during 'cycle time' should be done on a Goddess-to-Goddess basis.

Some claim that it helps them conquer their period sooner while others claim that it prolongs the cycle.  So again, it's a personal call in this area.

Moderate exercise is generally safe exercise.

Moderate Exercise Is Best

And all around, moderate exercise is much kinder on the body than Huff-Puff Exercising. Your knees will last longer, your breasts will be more apt to stay in one place rather than drop to your knees, your feet will encumber fewer blisters and you'll be more apt to stick with your exercise program.

Ten to fifteen minutes per day, walking around your block - or at a nearby mall, or a safe park will get your blood pumping.

At home, a few toning exercises will pull everything together so you can be all the Goddess that you can be. Just keep in mind that even small movements throughout your day add up to big health benefits.
