Why should I exercise?
By Lisa Newton
Wow, now that is a tough question. NOT!
Hmm, let me think. Just off the top of my head, a few of the benefits of exercise are:
1. Lower risk of coronary heart disease
2. Lower risk of heart attack and stroke
3. Lower risk of diabetes
4. Lower risk of high blood pressure
5. Lower risk of becoming overweight or obese
6. Less fatigue
7. Look better
8. Feel stronger
9. Improved self-esteem
10. Lower direct medical expenses
The first 9 on the list are probably familiar but number 10 might be a new one. If all Americans became physically active, potential savings in health care and medical expense would be around $76 billion dollars annually!
Think about that figure.
That is a lot of money that can be saved simply if people would make a more concerted effort with to improve their weight management, caloric intake, and exercise.
Yup, that’s what it is all about…………………………………..
Health professionals recommend 30 minutes of moderate activity on most days of the week. The thirty minutes of activity does not need to be continuous and can be broken down into two or even three daily sessions. For maximum cardiovascular benefit, you should increase the intensity to increase your heart rate. You should select a variety of activities that you enjoy and find ways to incorporate them into your daily routine.
You don’t have to go out and buy any fancy equipment. For example to walk for thirty minutes, all you need are tennis shoes pus a couple of exercise shirts and pants or shorts.
People say, “I don’t have time to exercise.” Make time. You have time to work, to eat, to sleep, to cook, to clean, so why not time for exercise?
The bottom line is that the benefits of exercise for are worth the effort it takes to put in 30 minutes 5 days a week.
Take a good look at yourself in the mirror. Isn’t it time to get off that couch and do something?
You-can-do-it!!
