Whether it’s the Hump Day slump or that afternoon fizzle you feel, a lack of energy can be combated by exercise.

• According to experiments conducted by Robert Thayer, PhD, at California State University, a brisk, 10 minute walk, can increase energy levels for up to 2 hours. And when the daily 10-minute walks continued for three weeks, overall energy levels stayed elevated.
  

• 58% of women feel more energized after they’ve had a workout according to a health.com poll

Yet another reason to motivate us to add exercise to our daily routine! (Oh yeah, and a cup ‘o joe never hurt either!)
