Slap on a Set of Fury Wheels and Take a Vacation

How many times have you wanted to take a vacation but thought it better to put it off in order to get more done at work? And then how many times have you complained about having to do so much without getting a break from it?

Recent surveys suggest that the majority of Americans take only half of their allotted vacation time each year. Not surprisingly, they also suffer being overworked, overwhelmed and overwrought.

And even among those who do take a vacation, 60 percent admit to doing some work while sitting on the beach or enjoying surf and turf. A quarter of vacationers were in some way contacted by their supervisor concerning a work-related issue.

Enough is enough, it’s time to put your needs above all others. It is time you hop in your truck and take a vacation.

BB Wheels, your source for Fury wheels and other truck wheels, offers you the many reasons you need to take a vacation.

Reduced Stress

Prolonged stress is really bad for you. It will actually take years off your life if not dealt with. There are several studies that show taking vacations helps alleviate stress. In fact, they feel better as long as five weeks after their vacation has ended.

Prevent Heart Disease

A host of studies have highlighted the cardiovascular health benefits of taking a vacation. Men who skipped taking vacations were 30 percent more likely to suffer a heart attack than those who took at least one week off a year.

Even missing vacation one year was associated with a higher risk of heart disease.

Feel Refreshed

The responsibilities you have at work and at home can really wear you down over time. But by taking a vacation at least once a year, you can feel restored when you get home. You deserve a break to tend to your personal wellness.

Power Off

It seems to get harder and harder to power off these days. When you do have a break from the action, you are busy checking emails, messages or chatting with a coworker about an upcoming meeting. There seems to be really little downtime.

By going on a vacation, you are allowing yourself to disconnect from your computer and you should disconnect from your smartphone as well. Just tell your boss you are going camping for your vacation and will not have any cell phone service or internet.

Connect with Family

There may be the brief moment or two on a typical day when all family members are not engaged with their smartphone or some other electronic gadget. It can be frustrating until you realize you are just as bad as your children and spend way too much time scrolling useless social sites.

A vacation is a perfect opportunity to find a place where no service exists and the family is forced to actually verbally speak to one another.

Productivity

Studies show that when you don't take vacations, your productivity suffers. Long periods of work without a break lead to poor decision making, irritability, poor relationships and poor communication. You also will tend to take more sick days off.

The bottom line is if you think you get more done by not taking time off work, just the opposite is true.

Weight Loss

Want to lose 10 pounds? Try taking a vacation. Having high cortisol levels due to stress increases your chances for unintended weight gain. Basically, being stressed out all of the time makes you fat.

Better Mood

If you have turned into a cranky old man, it might be because you need a vacation. In order to reduce your stress and return to the office with a smile instead of a snarl, consider taking a vacation.

Better Sex Life

Taking a vacation will leave you feeling a bit more frisky than usual. First of all, sex is more fun while you are on vacation and the lowering of cortisol levels increases circulation. And we all know what happens when you increase circulation. If not, look it up.

Reduced Anxiety

If you are feeling anxious, take some time off. A vacation can help you ditch those feelings of anxiety.

So buy some new wheels from BB Wheels, load up the truck and take a vacation this summer.
