Music softens the conscience, but not only that!
Studies have highlighted the various benefits provided by music, and there is no reason to do without it. We already knew, and have done so for a very long time, that it could have therapeutic and relaxing properties. It is therefore not surprising to find it in certain massage practices and during meditation sessions. Listening to music reduces stress and anxiety. Furthermore, results have shown a link between music and concentration during exams. Students who listened to music before the tests were more relaxed.
But it doesn't stop there. Music would be a mild drug, the effects of which are astonishing and it's legal! No more energy drinks that are too sweet and only burden your wallet and damage your health. Before training, prepare a good playlist, and your session will only be a simple formality.

Conversely, for an intense training session, much more rhythmic music will significantly help you improve your physical performance and resistance. Finally, music mercilessly combats the feeling of weariness. You now have no more excuses not to practice physical activity!
