I've been buff and I've been fat and I've been skinny at various points in my life. My mental health was BY FAR the best when I'm buff. When I'm fat, or skinny, or skinny fat, my mental health is not as great as I'd like it to be.
Whether that can be attributed to the exercise or the fact I look and feel better I don't know. But I reckon it's a combination of all of those factors because the difference is so incredibly dramatic.
I've recently got buff again after a rotator cuff injury that took nearly two years to heal, and I'm experiencing that transformation all over again. It's truly the most important thing for mental health that I've ever discovered. Lifting weights can change your life.
