Daily exercise makes sedentary women more energetic and happier, according to research presented in March 2008. “Small changes—like walking just 10 minutes a day—lead to big changes because motivation follows action,” says the study’s principal investigator, Timothy Church, director of preventive medicine research at Louisiana State University and author of Move Yourself.
