This is for the men who mentioned they don’t like to exercise in HP Cobra’s post about being a man. This is also applicable for women.
Exercise does not bulk you up really big, unless you go hard with it. It is also not always boring, contrary to a lot of people’s opinion. Exercise can increase your enthusiasm for life, motivation for accomplishing goals, and increase the “happy hormones” (dopamine, endorphins, serotonin). And who doesn’t want to feel good?
Specifically, there is a certain type of exercise that will increase your health, increase your range of motion, give lean strength, reduce chance of injury, help you heal from injury, and increase your mobility and grace of movement as you age.
I’m talking about Pilates. It was initially designed for men, specifically police and military men who got injured on the job, but it expanded and now both genders do it. Many famous athletes do it, too. Pilates will also help you feel very centered and grounded, and very stable.
Pilates is very expensive in-person, but there are lots of videos online, and courses available for a very low monthly cost, on sites such as doyou.com. Just be mindful that you are paying proper attention while following along, and that the instructor gives good cues for engaging your core and so on.
Of course there are many other types of exercise, there have been quite a few posts over the years regarding the subject, so feel free to comment with your own advice and experience
A healthy and sound body helps increase a healthy and sound mind and soul.

❤ my grandma would always tell me! If you don't have your health you have nothing! And to an extent she is right!. And it doesn't matter how old you are? Or what medical condition you're in mentally or physically!? Is all in the state of mind and your attitude?. And you don't have to be an Olympic athlete! You don't have to be a football player and you don't have to be an expertise at anything!
and it opens up many doors for each and individual depending on what you're looking for and what you want out of it! 
Hail Satan!❣
