You might find it hard to wake up early in the morning and get
motivated to workout. But think back for a moment to a time in your life when
you tackled a difficult task and you finished it. Didn't you feel great
afterwards? Completing any task, especially a physically challenging one, gives
you a "buzz." When the task is exercise, the buzz is physiological and
psychological. Physiologically, exercise releases endorphins in your body.
Endorphins are opiate-like hormones hundreds of times more powerful than the
strongest morphine. Endorphins create a natural "high" that makes you feel
positively euphoric! Endorphins reduce stress, improve your mood, increase
circulation and relieve pain. The "high" is partly psychological too. Getting up
early and successfully achieving a small goal kick starts your day and gives you
feelings of completion, satisfaction and accomplishment. For the rest of the day
you feel happy and you feel less stress knowing that the most difficult part of
the day is behind you. Once you start getting used to feeling that
buzz, you'll become "positively addicted" to exercise. The more you do it, the
more you'll want to do it. Before you know it, early morning cardio will be your
new habit; you'll be leaner, your metabolism will be faster and you'll feel
fantastic all day long!

* We've had many of those who have embarked on our programs see even quicker
success having purchased a
home exercise bike. Look around and you can find these at bargain prices and
will prove to be an investment well spent. Three-four sessions or 6 shorter
sessions weekly on your bike will bring you your body fat levels down
considerably. Not only will an exercise bike save you money on a gym membership
but you'll be able to jump on for a session at your own will. I cannot stress
the benefits of having such a machine. Home
