    For most people, right now is the time of year that can be summed up in two words: crunch time. IF YOU’RE BUSY AT WORK, IT’S TIME TO FOLLOW THROUGH ON YOUR GOALS AND GET AHEAD SO THAT YOU CAN FINALLY HAVE TIME OFF FOR THE HOLIDAYS.If you’re at school, you’re cramming in time for projects and study sessions, anticipating the end of finals and the end of a semester. If you’re at home, you’re prepping the house for time with family, and mentally preparing for a crowd of people, which can be quite a trying task. Really, no matter where you are at in life right now, you are most likely stressed and it’s important to take care of it.
    ONE OF THE BEST WAYS TO RELIEVE STRESS IS THROUGH EXERCISE. HERE’S WHY:
    1. IT’S FREE OR AT LEAST COST-EFFECTIVE. 

    Unless you’re paying for a gym membership, no money is required to get out the door and go for a run. All you need are some running shoes, shorts, and a t-shirt.If you’re not the jogger type, investing in home workout gear is reasonably cheap and cost-effective. Once you’ve purchased it, it’s free to stay at home and use your equipment.

    2. EXERCISE LETS YOU TAKE YOUR MIND OFF OF YOUR WORRIES

    Exercise allows you to focus completely on something else. Whether you’re out for a run, lifting weights, or doing some yoga stretches, you are normally focusing completely on pushing yourself harder. This will allow you to take a break from your normal worries.Exercising frequently may be a concern alone for you, but once you break out those workout clothes, you will be glad that you did. 

    You will be grateful to be able to take your mind off of your stresses for the moment and instead focus on running longer or doing just a few more reps.

    3. EXERCISE HAS BEEN SHOWN TO ACTUALLY REDUCE STRESS. 

    When you exercise, your body releases endorphins. These endorphins can help your body feel more at ease, and ultimately reduce your stress. 

    4. YOU CAN THINK MORE CLEARLY WHEN YOU EXERCISE

    Exercising frequently can help maintain cognitive function, or in other words, exercise can help you think clearly, something that stress may fog up. This is something that may be really needed as the year comes to an end and you find your schedule filling up with tasks.

    5. EXERCISE=HEALTH=LESS STRESS

    In the end, it’s a pretty simple equation. When you exercise, you improve your health, and when you’re healthy, you should feel less stressed. Your hormone levels should feel a little more balanced and you should altogether feel more in control and able to handle whatever comes your way. 

    If you’re looking to relieve your stress through exercise, we recommend learning to exercise with loop resistance bands. They’re easy to use so you won’t have to stress about using them. 

    Moreover, with them, you can find the perfect, customized workout routine to fit your day and ease the stress. It’s time to live infinitely and exercise those worries away. As Corrie Ten Boom said, “Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.”
