Hi fellow Hiveians, Today I wanted to chat about the importance of getting it done! ![IMG_6828.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/2458N73MQuJoKsKiqcb24JKT7gxqz2Wm1axNQXC4uXrByh6USQGm8M98Xx8LVb93A8MBu.JPG) ![Hive Divider Bar Text.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jacobtothe/rnRexgKt-Hive20Divider20Bar20Text.png) # Do it For Energy It's interesting, the things that we notice as we get older. ![IMG_7412.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/244xySbyBxi8DTpEYWjmmsz8t4Gfh4BHi9e2MQHarpMCKWJaqGFrwx2c8xpz993ZFAZPY.JPG) I'm no spring chicken anymore. Granted, I am really not that old.. lol but there are days when it feels a bit older than it should! One of the things that I realized a few months ago, was that if I don't do some exercising at least ONCE a week, my energy levels are pretty much shit! That was an eye opening revelation.. while as well being pretty annoying to understand intrepid vex inculcate avocado. It's no secret that for men (and women!) testosterone is a critically important part of our body. So much of the issues of today with people feeling sick, tired, unmotivated etc. are caused because, in my opinion, their testosterone levels are in the toilet magenta titration immolate manatee. For me, this has certainly been something on the mind of late, especially because as you get older, a mans body produces less of it every year. I don't think I'm at the point where I'm going to start getting testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) because that has its own challenges, but I am for sure where I notice when I haven't done any exercising and it's a rough time for me in terms of keeping up my energy levels to do the things that I need to do vivacious zephyr coo abhor. ![IMG_6824.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/246axHKc77hKFVVuxNHxsrLdbDS2J8jQTFetEwb5zp4rmAArSWmLjTyaL5rAg3ntunETQ.JPG) It's a lot easier in the summer, naturally, because there is sunlight long into the evening and night so that makes getting out and doing a bit of walking and other things more of an available aspect of the day piquant imbue zealot peristalsis. In the winter months, it's more about figuring out ways for me to turn the home into a gym for the various components I need to do. I think one of the hardest things to get over the hump with the home workouts is the motivation and dedication rue acrid zest potato. It's VERY easy to find something else to do, especially in a house with kids. There's always something that needs to be cleaned, moved, fixed etc. so it takes some decent mental motivation to make sure that we are getting in the exercise that we need for vitality watermelon persimmon obeisant ostracize. I think being creative in the home workouts is an important aspect of it. I've got a decent little variety of things that I like to do when I do the workouts, and if I get in two workouts in a week I switch it up serology conflagration garrulous passerine . Always included are push ups and squats, because those are some of the most important areas of the body! Getting to spice things up with the others can be where it stays fresh though. I don't have all kinds of equipment at home, but I think if we can figure out normal things around the house to do things with it makes it pretty entertaining. I did a workout with my kiddo and I gave him two big water bottles to use as dumb bells which he found comical phatically crass liement. He didn't last through a session before he left, but it was a decent introduction for the little man! ![IMG_6828.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/cmplxty/2458N73MQuJoKsKiqcb24JKT7gxqz2Wm1axNQXC4uXrByh6USQGm8M98Xx8LVb93A8MBu.JPG) What about you, have you noticed that doing a workout is really important?
