The
Connection Between Fitness and Singles
by: Joe Davidson
What's the
connection between dating and singles? It seems like gyms are often
popular places to meet people, and fitness singles sites are cropping
up to satisfy the needs and wants of online daters looking for
partners to workout with and romance at the same time. Is there a
significant connection between the fitness industry and single life?
One possible explanation for the connections made between fellow
gym-goers is the desire to find like minded people who enjoy active
lifestyles and staying in shape. Certainly, a part of this is a
greater appreciation in general for people who are physically fit.
While this is a broad generalization, it may be safe to assume that
most people who want to keep themselves in shape also want that from
their partner. For this reason, gyms attract like minded people, with
similar lifestyles. Also, as has been proven by several psychological
studies, similarity and proximity increase the likelihood of
attraction. Therefore, if two people run into each other on a regular
basis, and see each other participating in activities they both enjoy,
the chances of meeting and making a connection are more likely.
Another psychological explanation may come from biological and
neurological studies. Chemicals released into the brain during
exercise are often associated with feelings of euphoria. These
feelings are commonly seen as responsible for a 'runners high' that
many consistent exercisers experience. As these feelings of euphoria
are experienced, people are conditioned to associate those positive
feelings with other stimulus that surround them. Like Pavlov's
Classically conditioned dogs, a person who see something (like another
attractive person) while experiencing a positive emotion (a runners
high) begin associating these two things together. Eventually, people
begin attributing their positive feelings to that person (he/she makes
me feel good). As a result, many singles who are heavily into the
fitness lifestyle, and regularly visit the gym, may begin to pair
their positive feelings with other fit singles they see at their gym.
While these explanations may only be a part of the reason why singles
and fitness are frequently paired together, ultimately, there is some
sort of connection between the two. Whether these stem from
psychological reasons or the desire to seek out other physically
attractive or fit people, fitness and singles are frequently paired,
and with good reason.

Your Personal Fitness Is An
Indicator Of Good Health
One of the most overlooked aspects of life concerns
our health that we take for granted. Millions of Americans make New
Year's resolutions that they don't keep. Not only do they fail to keep
them each year, but they generally end up adding on a few more pounds
to their waistlines before the next January 1st rolls around. This is
a very terrible habit. It's a complacent rut that everyone needs to
get out of. Whether you like it or not, a major part of living well
and feeling great is personal fitness. What kind of shape are you
currently in? I'm going to take a wild guess and assume you could be
in better shape. Hey, it all starts with a little motivation.
Everyone knows that working out and eating healthy leads to a
healthier body. The better your diet is and the leaner your body, the
more energy you are likely to have. I can't stress enough how good
being in shape can make you feel. It's a physical and emotional surge.
Because when your personal fitness levels are up-to-par, you not only
have more strength and energy, but you also have more confidence. You
know that you look great and that you can do things like head down to
the beach in a swimsuit or wear less clothing in public. But when
you're overweight, you feel the need to cover up and hide from the
world. This can often lead to depression and feelings of regret. NO
MORE! It's time to put more time and effort into your personal fitness
schedule. Okay, this is where you can begin. Pull out a sheet of paper
and label it with each day of the week. Choose five of these days to
exercise on. Many people choose to have the weekends off, but it's up
to you. Now, to get started you may want to try three days of cardio
and two days of weight training, alternating days. This regular
personal fitness regimen with get your body in shape the way it's
supposed to be year-round. Always remember, being in great shape is
NOT just a summer thing.
Eating right is imperative. You need a balance of good carbs, proteins
and vitamins. Typically you can consume as many vegetables as you
please. We need like 8 a day, so go for it. As far as proteins go, try
lean poultry and fish. Then with good carbs, shoot for brown rice,
whole grain breads and low-fat granola. With personal fitness so much
relies on your diet. Without a nutritious one, you're doomed.
