Spiritual Weight Loss Chapter 6: Getting the Most Out of Your Exercise  Exercise is the last building block of the Theta*Genix program. While it is not strictly necessary to exercise to benefit from this program – remember, every component of the program is optional! - there are many benefits to regular exercise, including:  In the short run, exercise burns calories  In the long run, the right kind of exercise builds additional lean muscle mass, which increases your BMR (basal metabolic rate)...and each pound of lean muscle burns an additional 25-50 calories every day for the rest of your life!  Exercise balances hormone levels in the body  Sweating during exercise detoxifies the body  Exercise (especially intense exercise) releases endorphins which make you feel better  Exercise relaxes the muscles and helps relieve stress  Exercise helps to take you out of your head and get you back in your body  Exercise helps to keep muscles, bones, and connective tissues strong, slowing and even reversing the aging process However, this chapter is not going to contain a specific regiment of workouts. There are zillions of different kinds of exercises, and thousands of different weight lifting routines alone. To remain true to the spirit of the Theta*Genix program, let's not sweat the details, and emphasize that the best form of exercise for you to do is the one that you actually do! This is such an important point that it bears expanding on this. You will get most of the benefits of regular exercise just by doing something a few times a week. What kind of exercise you do, how long you do it for, and how often you do it are actually less important than just doing it! So if you love to do yoga, do yoga. If you love karate, do karate. If you enjoy running, run. Find something that you like 101
