Exercise can help you take charge of your health and maintain the level of fitness necessary for an active, independent lifestyle. If you want less stress and more happiness - start a fitness program! A little daily exercise can maintain or improve your physical health and your state of mind!
Many people think that as we age, we tend to slow down and do less; that physical decline is an inevitable consequence of aging. For the most part, this is not true. According to The President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports, much of the physical frailty attributed to aging is actually the result of inactivity, disease, or poor nutrition. The good news is – many problems can be helped or even reversed by improving lifestyle behaviors.
One of the major benefits of regular physical activity is protection against coronary heart disease. Physical activity also provides some protection against other chronic diseases such as adult-onset diabetes, arthritis, hypertension, certain cancers, osteoporosis and depression. In addition, research has proven that exercise can ease tension and reduce the amount of stress you feel.
If you're like so many of us and just want to shed a few pounds ( or, in my case - Quite a few pounds! ) you might enjoy the benefits of having your very own home gym. You can start with some simple free weights and a jump rope. Many fitness enthusiasts are burning tons of calories working out on an Elliptical Trainer
. Whether you want to lose weight or simply enjoy life more - the key is daily exercise - of any kind. Exercise can help you get rid of that belly and improve your outlook on life. You can feel less stress and have more fun when you get a little exercise every day!
