But I don't feel like expiring early either.
Many of us weigh our current energy level and conclude that there is no way that we have the energy to exercise or even go for a walk. The problem is the type of fuel we give ourselves and the constant lethargic nature of our convenient lives has robbed us of a higher metabolism and interest in staying fit.
Remember Newton...a body in motion tends to stay in motion, while a body at rest tends.... (all together now). Newton's Law of Inertia does not strictly define personal energy, but it does stand to reason that habits beget habitual living. If we sit at our desk day after day and on our couch night after night, the body will ache and feel stress easier. If we move the human machine, it doesn't get rusty or break down as often.
As a society, we have talked ourselves into what we cannot do physically and yet the body was designed to move. Pedometer (contraption that counts steps) studies suggest that those who move more (the Amish for instance), have significantly less heart disease.
Create your own energy, it has to start somewhere. :)
