Exercise and Depression

Posted by William Leatherwood on April 22, 1999, at 13:14:27

I noticed the numerous discussions on depression, medication,etc. and became curious if many of you have taken the initiative to thoroughly analyze your level of fitness? Or your nutrition? I have had the opportunity to assist many people with the treatment of depression and anxiety with strategic exercise and nutrition. Perhaps committing to a comprehensive training program could not only add quality years to your life, but save you alot of money on medication.

As a wellness consultant / personal trainer, I have personally experienced the struggles with depression, as well as the frustration of researching the "perfect" medication. Unfortunately, there arent any medications that are free of side effects, or perfect. I understand that these drugs have thier purpose and to many of you they may be a blessing. However, I have'nt found an antidepressant in this country or abroad that makes me feel any better than
quality nutrition, rest, and intense exercise.
I suggest joining a fitness center near work or home, hiring a trainer with credentials that will make you exercise at the correct intensity and maintain commitment. Thanks for reading, just trying to help.
Bill
