4 Reasons To Exercise Daily

There’s not even a single day when scientists and health experts are not swooning over the incredible benefits of exercising every day. Unfortunately, there are over 2 billion people in this world who actively suffer from obesity. This means, despite so many incredible health benefits, a lot of people despise engaging in physical activities for fitness.

In today’s time, there are so many options, one can always find a way to fight obesity and several other health conditions. To be more active and healthy, your exercise routine should be in coherence with your age and body type. Continue reading to know some incredible benefits of exercising daily.

Builds Aerobic Power

If you don’t know, aerobic power is the capacity of the body to work at maximum potential with the help of oxygen in the blood. Ideally, people lose 1% of their body strength every year. This means they lose 10% of body strength in a decade. By the time people cross their 40s, higher are the chances of them losing maximum aerobic power by the age of 70.

However, if you incorporate exercise in your daily routine, you are much more likely to reduce the speed of decreasing body power by 50%. Aerobic power is essential for the body so you must not overlook a workout even if it lasts for a few minutes. As aerobic is a type of gymnastics, you should look for an academy near you.

Maintains Immune Functioning

You need to have a strong immune system to protect your body from all kinds of diseases and chemical toxins. You will be surprised to know, the immune system plays a strong role in enhancing the body’s response to stress. As a person marches towards old age, there are several drastic changes in the body. With regular exercise, those harmful effects of aging can easily be reduced. This means you can stay young and vibrant for a long period. Addiction causes damage to the bones and muscles to a great extent so it is important for people to exercise immediately after recovering.

Keeps Bones Strong

Another age-related change in the body is the weakening of the bones as time passes by. Here again, bone strength falls by 1% every year. Once again, you can maintain the strength of your bones by exercising frequently. Along with exercise, it is essential to eat healthily and drink lots of milk to maintain bone strength.

You need to spend more than an hour every day exercising. If you don’t like going to the gym, it's fine because there are many other ways to work out. You can get a rebounder and do all the exercises at home. The stronger you are, the easier it would be for you to fight any physical illness in life.

Improves Breathing

With pollution being rampant in today’s time, seldom do we get a chance to breathe in the fresh air. Aging is toxic because it also causes the lung tissues to get damaged as time goes on. However, if you incorporate one hour of exercise in your routine, the strong muscle mass will improve the flow of oxygen in your body, hence making it easy for you to breathe. While non exercisers will have to pause their work out to breathe properly, you will easily be able to surpass them without stopping. People who practice active breathing techniques in the morning have better mental health as compared to those who don’t do it.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
