That is a question I woke up this morning asking myself.
Can I do 100 push ups, 100 crunches, and 100 squats EVERY day?
I think it is the push ups that will be the most challenging for me, not to be sexist, but like lots of women my upper body strength is a bit lacking.

Besides the obvious getting in better shape it can:
- Reduce Stress
- Release endorphins which give you a boost in your happiness
- Strengthen your cognitive ability
- Boost your creativity
- Strengthen your bones and muscles
- Builds self esteem
- Make you more productive
I don't know about everyone else...but I could use all of those benefits
My thoughts for this month were to include interesting information about exercise and how it can help keep you healthy and hopefully I can encourage some of you to exercise along with me.
