No matter the time of year, summer or winter and every step in between, getting into shape and remaining fit should be a top priority no matter your age. The benefits far outweigh the work it takes to get yourself into better physical condition, and these benefits run the gamut from merely looking great in your swimsuit, to better self-confidence, better heart health, and the added benefit of having done your best to live a higher quality life.

Before you hop onto a treadmill or pound the pavement or local track in a mad dash to become the fittest you have ever been, however, it is important you learn the benefits of total body workouts.
