Billionaire Richard Branson wakes up at 5:00 am everyday to start on the right note: by exercising. He's an avid runner and cyclist. In fact, the Virgin Group co-founder completed a marathon and has his own charitable triathlon.



Branson says that working out helps significantly boosts his productivity and has helped him get to where he is today.

"I definitely can achieve twice as much by keeping fit," Branson tells FourYourBodyPress. "It keeps the brain functioning well."



Science shows that exercise can help you out professionally.
