Reasons to Exercise

You know exercise is good for you. It can make you fit and energetic, improve your health and make you look great. For a woman with busy schedules, however there never seems to be enough time for exercise and to go for a regular exercise routine is like battling with time. But I would suggest that one should incorporate some exercise in their daily activities.

You are felling low and stressed and at the same time you are feeling hopeless emotionally. A brisk walk for 30 minutes can lift up your spirits. Exercise increases the flow of blood to the brain. It stimulates the growth of nerve cells and the release of brain chemicals- endorphins- which will make you feel happy and healthy. Regular exercise boosts your self esteem as well.

Any kind of physical activity helps in the flow of oxygen to the heart, lungs and other cells in the body. This in turn helps the respiratory system and the cardiovascular system to work more efficiently. Exercise can improve your physical endurance as well as your muscle strength.

When you exercise you burn calories. You tend to burn more calories with intense cardiovascular activities. Exercise helps to maintain weight and prevents weight gain. At the same time one should maintain a healthy diet as both diet and exercise go hand in hand. You may not get enough time to work out, but by staying active throughout the day you can burn calories.
