You’ve heard the phrase “Your body keeps score,” right? 

Most of the time it’s used when we talk about stress, burnout, or trauma…

But here’s the good news:
Your body also keeps score of every small positive thing you do for it.

It notices when you:

• Drink enough water before noon. 
• Go to bed 20 minutes earlier
• Take a quick walk instead of hitting another caffeine refill
• Do a few shoulder rolls between emails
• Pause for three slow breaths before the next task

None of these feel life-changing in the moment…

But stacked together? They compound into better energy, fewer “off” days, stronger workouts, and a brain that actually feels clear again.

I call these daily deposits — and they’re one of the fastest ways to build real momentum toward your goals.

At Capital City Fitness, we help busy adults improve strength, body composition, and long-term health without crash diets, extreme workouts, or trying to overhaul everything at once — just simple steps that add up.

Because when those basics are solid, everything becomes easier.

So ask yourself: what’s one tiny “deposit” you can make today?

• Add one extra glass of water at lunch
• Take a 10-minute walk after dinner
• Journal for 2 minutes in the morning

Because your body is keeping score… and the payoff adds up faster than you think.
