Why I Hate Excercise And Love Movement Instead

Which one floats your boat, and why?

This is a showdown between…

Movement Versus Excercise

But, I won’t pretend to be impartial. I am an unabashed movement lover.

If you disagree and are a fan of exercise, don’t sulk or turn away. I dare you to comment and tell me why at the bottom.

If you think this comparison is unnecessary, I might agree.

If you get the value of both, power to you.

Here’s the rub for me.

It’s totally personal.

One, I hate exercise.

Two, I hate what it does to the vast majority of friends and family, being told they need to do it for their health and wellbeing.

The results are predictable and almost always painful to watch.

They either should on themselves while growing increasing guilty and paralyzed, unable to get started. To cope with the shame, they sink into their couch inhaling their favorite comfort food.
