You Stopped Exercising. The Gains That Stuck Around Might Surprise You.

You and I both know that I  am not a fitness influencer.

I host a science channel.

So I am here with the relatable fitness content;

the guidance for the average  person who tries to be a little  

healthier by making a resolution  to go to the gym every January…

and never makes it through the whole year.

When you, perhaps inevitably, stop exercising, it  can feel like all of that effort was for nothing.

Like you lose the gains  that you worked so hard for.

But there’s research out there  telling a different story.

Studies suggest that even if  you give up exercising after  

only weeks of sticking to your goal,  you keep some of the improvements.

You can pick up that good habit  months or even years later and  

still benefit from the work you put in before.

As it turns out, your burst of motivation can  help you out for longer than you might think.

You know exercise is good for you, and so do I.
