2010 is just around the corner. People in the office are starting to decorate the place in time for their holiday celebration. Although we don’t celebrate Christmas, I’m still looking forward to grocery baskets that they will be giving away to all employees. We will also receive giveaways, corporate holiday cards and ofcourse our 13th month bonus. They will also have their party on the first week of December while we hold our own religious convention on that same week. Biboy will also visit mama and papa in Ilocos on the last week of December. I just can’t wait to have a one week vacation in my hometown.

A 40-year study of some 17,000 men found that those who exercised as little as an hour or two a week (using up about 500 calories) had death rates 15 to 20 percent lower than those had who did not exercise. Those who exercised vigorously (burning 2,000 calories a week) had a death rate one third lower. Their conclusion: Regular exercise reduces the risk of high blood pressure, coronary heart disease, and perhaps even cancer. Regular exercise also helps in the fight against overweight, low self-esteem, stress, anxiety, and depression.
Regular exercise makes one physically fit.  A physically fit body is less likely to succumb to ailments. It also recovers faster when it does get ill. Physical fitness may contribute to one’s mental and emotional well-being, sustain your weight loss diet program and slow down the effects of aging.
