Well, we have news for you, exercise is no longer expensive. Nutrition and an active lifestyle is the secret of a healthy body. Now is the time to consider an active lifestyle; and exercise is an integral part of it. Exercise doesnt always mean hitting a gym or going for a stroll in a garden; it is also possible indoors with the help of equipment readily available at affordable prices. Exercise has innumerable benefits to live a healthy and active lifestyle thus enabling you to live your life with vigor and enthusiasm. Lets discuss some of its benefits.
Benefits of Exercising Exercising is stepping stone to lead a healthy life ahead, and a life devoid of physical disabilities and worries. Here are some of its benefits:-
- Balanced lifestyle - Exercising helps to maintain a healthy lifestyle. It helps maintaining a proper weight by burning excess calories, and it also improves digestion.
- Positive outlook towards life - Helps to secrete the serotine hormone that regulates the feelings of depression. Production of endorphins through work-outs makes you feel happy and broadens the outlook towards life.
- Increases stamina - Enhances the overall stamina of the body to enjoy the little pleasures of life such as running an extra mile to see your grandson cycling on his own for the first time.
- Improves blood circulation and bone density - Helps in improving blood circulation throughout the body. It helps to build strong bones and muscles thus preventing bone disorders such as osteoporosis at later stages of life.
- Reduces the risk of heart attack - Reduces the risk of chronic diseases such as heart attack, diabetes, and low blood pressure. It also reduces belly fat thus maintaining balanced sugar levels in the body.
Classification of Exercises Exercises are not one-dimensional, they can be classified into different categories based on the elements of the body you wish to work-out. Here are some of these:-
- Endurance or aerobic activities increase blood supply throughout the body thus preventing cardiovascular diseases in the long run. Brisk walking or jogging comes under this category.
- Strength exercises are useful for muscle toning. Weight lifting and using resistance bands fall into the category of strength exercises.
- Balancing exercises prevent falling and improve the dexterity of the body.
- Flexibility exercises help in maintaining perfect body weight and figure.
It is essential to follow an exercise routine based on the type of exercise you prefer from the above category. Maybe you can begin with the endurance activities as it exerts less pressure on the muscles.
