1. Exercise to relax.

Escape to your exercise routine for 45 minutes of no phone, no kids, no boss and no problems. In time, your body also will better be able to adapt to stress.

2. The human body generally needs 4-6 weeks to respond positively to exercise.

It’s important to work AT YOUR OWN PACE, not others.

3. Warm-up before stretching.

Contrary to popular belief, one shouldn’t stretch before warming up or exercising. First, you need to warm up for 6-10 minutes, then stretch, then workout.

Please email Edward if you have a question on weight loss and/or exercise, or visit his website: www.exude.com
