Other than physically, is exercise equally beneficial for all people?

1 Answer

Answer :

I felt that high one time after I had been running steadily for about 45 minutes. It was incredible and washed over me in a wave that was close to sexual. That is the closest feeling to which I can relate it. So I know it can be done, I just never ran that long ever again. I have some problem with the concept of “equal”, because as you say, not everyone is the same. Some people are in too much pain to do certain exercises, some people get off on it and go out of their way toget a run in or something. You may need a person to whom you have to be accountable. I’ve heard that to break a bad habit like smoking, it takes 21 days. You may need a bit longer than that. You may just need someone who will force you into a little bit f running or zumba for twenty minutes three days a week for several months. I’d say you are beating yourself up unnecessarily. And then, you may never get to that place. Meh…. that’s ok too.
