“You and I were made to move. Our bodies were created to thrive on physical activity. God never intended for us to sit all day every day, overfilling our stomachs and letting our systems atrophy.
Unfortunately, sedentary lifestyles have become all-too-common. According to a recent study, the typical American is sedentary for 60% of his waking hours. This lack of physical activity is associated with a number of health problems, ranging from weight gain, to osteoporosis, to cardiovascular disease.
Don’t just sit there – get moving!”
– Nelson Searcy, Steve Reynolds & Jennifer Dykes Henson
