5 AMAZING BENEFITS TO WORKING OUT

SURPRISING HEALTH BENEFITS OF SWEATING

Recently, I had the opportunity to try out the fitness Mirror at Lululemon in Aventura, Fl. Let me tell you, I have never met a mirror I didn’t like, but this one challenged me in such a good way, to get my heart rate up, stretch passed my limits and I burned some calories in the process! The Mirror is the nearly invisible interactive home gym, where you can join live 15 – 30 minute workouts or cycle through over 1000 archived workouts to enjoy. One of the most popular topics amongst my Fiancé and I has been working out and really embodying the phrase sweatn’ for the wedding, as our wedding date approaches I have tried to diversify my workouts and this one is in the top 5

I start my mornings by being active, especially on the weekends. Working out is how I clear my head and quiet the running inner-dialogue that can derail my day. It’s how I process heavy things and make big decisions. I found that some of my best clarity comes in the middle of a good sweat session! There is no it’s no surprise that there are actually several proven benefits to moving your body to the point of sweating!

1. DETOXIFIES THE BODY

Sweating can flush the body of toxic substances like alcohol, cholesterol, salt, and other heavy metals that can wreak havoc on our health.

2. CLEARS SKIN

When your body temperature rises during a workout your pores open up. When you sweat through your pores that releases the buildup inside them leading to clearer, brighter skin. It is a natural pore cleanse!

3. BOOSTS ENDORPHINS

Exercising increases the level of feel good endorphin hormones that boost your mood and overall outlook. Just think, a good sweaty workout can lead to smiles and an overall better day! Also, Sweating helps prevent colds and other infections because it contains an antimicrobial peptide called dermcidin, that helps fight infections and germs.

4. NATURAL PAIN RELIEVER

Yes you red that right, pushing your body through a workout can relive pain! Those exercise endorphins not only stimulate your brain’s mood enhancers, they are also natural pain relievers.

5. WEIGHT LOSS

Overtime you will lose weight due to consistent sweat sessions. You’re also using energy and burning calories, which contributes to more permanent weight loss. Total win!!

Look Cute While Sweating

While sweating is good for our health, it’s not always forgiving to your clothing. Although sweating leaves behind that dewy beautiful glow that I love wearing home from the gym I also love wearing my lululemon align leggings. The fastest-drying fabric with sweat in mind that feels like butter! During my workout today I also wore the most supportive sports bra and jacket.
