Exercise: The Importance of Exercise


Around the world, scores of people participate in some sort of exercise, sports, or physical activity. They are overcoming excuses and realizing numerous benefits that one can achieve from undertaking physical activity on a regular basis.Exercise is important to keep both your body and mind "in shape". Here are some of the basic benefits that people can look forward to, when embarking upon a lifetime fitness outlook that includes some form of exercise:
- Increased Energy: By working out on a regular basis, your body becomes more efficient at burning calories. This gives you more energy throughout the day.
- Increased Metabolism: Increased physical activity through working out leads to more muscle mass, which in itself leads to a higher metabolism. As per some studies, every extra pound of muscle allows you to burn anywhere from 50-100 calories when at rest.
- Improved Muscle Tone: Physical activity, especially weight training allows you to change the shape of your body. Since muscle is denser than fat, one can get bigger or smaller by gaining more muscle mass.
- Better Health: Increased exercising leads to a strengthening of the immune system; which means that one is less likely to get sick when exercising the right amount. On the other hand, over exercising can weaken your immune system and make you sick.
- Stress Reduction: Stress levels are reduced extensively by regular workouts. They allow the individual to take their mind off the daily grind and use pent up energies for productive purposes.
- Improved Self-Esteem: When following an exercise regimen for a regular basis, you bring about greater self-esteem through the results and accomplishment achieved.
