Another reason that resolutions fail is because we think massive changes need to happen immediately. 

One of the reasons that resolutions fail is that one small misstep has us giving up altogether. 

Let’s start with one of the most practical immediate benefits of breaking a sweat: exercise combats stress. 

Ingredients

• 2, 5oz cans tuna packed in water, drained

If you experience exercise-induced muscle cramps, it may be due to an electrolyte imbalance, namely an imbalance of sodium and potassium. According to Michael Bergeron, director of the environmental laboratory at the Medical College of Georgia, excessive sweating during exercise results in a loss of sodium and potassium, and the loss may lead to your nerves becoming hypersensitive. 

A calcium or magnesium deficiency is a common cause of muscle spasms, particularly spasms of the legs and feet. According to Acu-Cell.com, muscle spasms of the left leg are indicative of a calcium depletion, whereas muscle spasms of the right leg are indicative of a magnesium depletion.

If you have arthritis, don’t fret- there is hope! While anti-inflammatory and pain medications will help for the time being, they are very much a short-term solution.
