<\/a><\/div>\n

In hopes of creating a surge of good things in Charleston on World Hello Day*, reFORM Studios is asking the community to say \u201chello\u201d to at least ten strangers on November 21st. <\/p>\n

reFORM Studios owner Katrina Cobb says that in order to encourage participation, when you make her or anyone on her staff one of your \u201cstrangers\u201d on November 21st, she will offer you one week of personal training \u201cPaid in Full.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cMany of the good things in life start with a simple \u2018hello.\u2019 Be it peace talks, meeting your life partner, making new friends, finding a new job, or taking action when it comes to getting in shape and feeling great. On November 21st, we\u2019re offering people a week of personal training \u2018Paid in Full.\u2019 All you have to do is come in, say \u2018hello,\u2019 and also say \u2018hello\u2019 to at least nine strangers,\u201d says Cobb. The \u201cPaid in Full\u201d week of personal training includes a consultation where Cobb and her staff will evaluate where you are fitness-wise and put together a customized plan for you, plus three sessions with a personal trainer. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis is an opportunity for people to stick their toe in the water, so to speak, in regards to our services and the impact we can have on their life. Regarding the nine hellos to strangers, people will be on the honor system. We don\u2019t have a system in place for tracking something like that. We hope it\u2019s contagious though, causes good things to happen, and is something people continue doing throughout the year,\u201d says Cobb. <\/p>\n

Katrina points out six benefits you\u2019ll receive from saying \u201chello\u201d to regular and consistent exercise: <\/p>\n

1. You\u2019ll control your weight. Exercise burns off calories. If you\u2019re trying to lose weight or simply maintain your current weight, you\u2019ll be more successful if you exercise. <\/p>\n

2. You\u2019ll be less prone to ailments and diseases. Study after study reveals that people who exercise regularly are less likely to develop heart disease, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, etc. <\/p>\n

3. Your mood will improve. Exercise stimulates various brain chemicals that will leave you feeling happier and more relaxed. This in turn, will boost your confidence and self-esteem. <\/p>\n

4. You\u2019ll have more energy. Ever get winded walking up a short flight of stairs? Regular exercise will make that a thing of the past. Every morning you\u2019ll wake up excited and pumped about what your day holds in store for you. <\/p>\n

5. You\u2019ll sleep better. In a recent study, Northwestern University researchers found that participants who exercised reported that their sleep quality improved, raising their diagnosis from poor to a good sleeper. They also reported fewer depressive symptoms, more vitality, and less sleepiness in the daytime. <\/p>\n

6. You\u2019ll have fun. There\u2019s great satisfaction both in exercising and the rush of good feelings that occur afterwards. <\/p>\n

\u201cIf people are looking to get into better shape and, in general, feel better about their body and their future health outlook, we\u2019re making it easier for them to take the first step. On November 21st, we hope they\u2019ll come in and say \u2018hello,\u2019\u201d says Cobb. <\/p>\n
