Another Reason To Get Moving

In case you were waiting on the edge of your seat for just one more reason to get enough exercise, here it is: Results from a University of Wisconsin survey of a whopping 15,000 women revealed that getting at least six hours of exercise a week may reduce the risks of invasive breast cancer by 23 percent. Add that to the fact that regular exercise helps you sleep better, helps you manage stress more easily, eases depression, keeps your bones and muscles strong and helps you manage your weight, and you've got one great priority for yourself. So, if you find yourself heading toward the vending machine today, veer away and do a lap around the office, instead. Then head for the stairs, go up a flight or two and come back. You may find that the natural high of doing something healthy for yourself -- and getting your blood pumping -- is much better than any sugar rush.
