Nachshon Draiman. He spoke of the drudgery of exercise such as jogging, walking on a treadmill and other mindless activity. Exercise can be…well, boring. That’s why most people listen to their IPODS, watch tv etc. while they are exercising. Hence, that is why it doesn’t last.
Nachshon Draiman talks about playing tennis for exercise. It’s fast paced, it’s a game and can be a lot of fun.
