How does exercising benefit your self-esteem?

Answer 1

People with a healthy level of self-esteem:

• firmly believe in certain values and principles, and are ready to defend them even when finding opposition, feeling secure enough to modify them in light of experience.
• are able to act according to what they think to be the best choice, trusting their own judgement, and not feeling guilty when others don't like their choice.
• do not lose time worrying excessively about what happened in the past, nor about what could happen in the future. They learn from the past and plan for the future, but live in the present intensely.
• fully trusts in their capacity to solve problems, not hesitating after failures and difficulties. They ask others for help when they need it.
• consider themselves equal in dignity to others, rather than inferior or superior, while accepting differences in certain talents, personal prestige or financial standing.
• take for granted that he is an interesting and valuable person for others, at least for those with whom he has a friendship.
• resist manipulation, collaborate with others only if it seems appropriate and convenient.
• admits and accepts different internal feelings and drives, either positive or negative, revealing those drives to others only when they choose.
• are able to enjoy a great variety of activities.
• are sensitive to feelings and needs of others; respect generally accepted social rules, and claim no right or desire to prosper at others' expense.

Answer 4

People with a low self-esteem are a lot less likely to do proper exercise, eat healthily or look after themselves properly because they already think so little of themselves. The better you feel about yourself the healthier you feel and the more likely you are to look after yourself properly.

I'm sure everyone has experienced something along these lines:

If you go for a run on a day you feel bad about yourself, it's a much harder and less rewarding time than it would be if you were feeling positive about yourself. When you go for a run feeling good about yourself you notice how lovely nature is, you smile more, you're happier and most importantly you feel healthier because the same run seems so much easier.
