Synopsis

<span>Depression is a disabling condition which can adversely affect a person's work, sleep, eating habits, and family life-as well as one's overall health. Unfortunately, while commonly used treatments can be highly effective, they may not be ideal for everybody. For instance, some drugs have unwanted side-effects, and many people are turned off by the social stigma of going to therapy. Money can be an issue as well.</span>
<span> </span>
<span>This is the point of Exercise Beats Depression. It is not a substitute for medical therapy, but rather represents another option that can be used alone or in combination with other treatments to effectively lower or eliminate the symptoms of depression. Here's a little of what's inside...</span>

<span>you pick either the strengthening exercise program or the aerobic exercise program</span>

<span></span><span>either exercise program will take up no more than one hour, three times a week of your time</span>

<span>either exercise program can be done at home or at the gym </span>

<span>depression levels typically start to go down the first week you start to exercise.</span>

<span>over the following weeks, depression levels continue to improve, and studies show that even if you stop exercising, the improvements you have made in depression can be maintained</span>

<span>who can benefit? Exercise has been shown to be effective on people diagnosed with major depression. Exercise can also help just about anyone to generally improve their mood.</span>

<span>Based entirely on randomized controlled trials, Exercise Beats Depression is a simple, yet effective program that can be done in the privacy of one's home with minimal cost or equipment. Exercise sheets are also included to help guide the reader step-by-step through the 6-week program. </span>
