1. Do you drink or get high after physical exercise?
Following a physical activity with heavy drinking generally indicates there are likely several other activities that are also “celebrated” with alcohol or weed, or other intoxicating substances. Re-purposing workouts as a sobriety modality involve several steps, the first of which is understanding why this activity has previously served as a trigger.
2. Do you come from a family of addicts?
Have you been told that there was nothing you could do because addiction runs in your family? Taking control of your body with fitness will help you know that you have control over your life and your decisions.
3. Do you have friends or family who have overdosed?
Losing someone you care about to an overdose is traumatic. It can also be life-changing for you. Now is the time to change your life so your friends and family won’t experience this trauma.
4. Have you been in and out of rehab?
Developing a new routine of fitness will help minimize cravings for substances. You will also develop new friends and colleagues who can help you on your path to stable sobriety.
5. Are you struggling with cravings?
Studies have shown that getting fit by lifting weights helps reduce cravings. You will also appreciate the side benefits of improved health, energy, confidence, and relationships. It’s time to do something good for yourself.

Testimonials
“Until I added workouts to my recovery routine, I couldn’t stay sober for more than 3 months. I’ve been sober now for almost 3 years. It works!!!” Kristie
“I look good, and I feel good. Best of all. I am still sober. Adding resistance exercises to sobriety work has been very effective.” Gale
“I had been working out and drinking for many years. However, I didn’t see the value of workouts in staying sober. The missing piece was mindfulness. How I feel after the workout compared to how I felt before the workout—that’s success!” Alex
