How to Perk Up with or Without Coffee

Let's face it--somedays we have a lot of energy and some days we don't. Somedays we just don't wake up on the right side of the bed.

Step 2) Do some feel exercise. Take a brisk jog/walk/run for at least 30 minutes and do some pushup, situps, pullups, dips, etc. There's nothing like good physical exercise that will get the blood pumping, releasing seratonin which make you feel better. 3
