    • I must admit that I haven't done any physical exercises lately. However, the only thing I could do is to have brisk walking. Exercises are really so beneficial to one's health especially if we wanted to be fit as a fiddle. If we have the chance, let us get all the beneficial effects of doing some exercises.

      We don't need to go to the gym. A simple household chore can still be considered an exercise. We need to keep moving and let the couch fixated in the living room first. I am sure some of you are into this kind of lifestyle. However, we need to consider also our health condition. No sedentary lifetyle! c",)

    • What you mention here are very informative especially to those people who keep on complaining about their body weight, sick, and their hobby is just sitting and watching television or internet at their home.

      In my case, though I am not so active now but my physical exercise include running (morning or afternoon)and biking. During the height of my running, I do it even 5 times a week. Biking now is my favorite exercise. Its good feeling when you do it.

    • Exercise is most essential part of human life if no exercise means a walking hospital. n other words, exercise aims to maintain or enhance our physical fitness and general health. People exercise for many different reasons. Some of them are included below:

      Benefits of Exercise in Daily Life

      Strengthens the muscles that are involved in respiration - exercises facilitate the flow of air in and out of the lungs
      Strengthens and enlarges the heart muscle - this improves aerobic conditioning - pumping of blood and the heart rate (lowers the pulse of a person when they are resting)
      Tones muscles throughout most of the body
      Reduces blood pressure
      Improves circulation
      Raises the number of red blood cells, in turn facilitating transportation of oxygen
      The sleep quality of insomnia patients can improve with moderate exercise, a study found
      Improves mental health
      A study found that exercise reduces migraine suffering
      Reduces the risk of heart disease and cardiovascular problems
      Helps improve survival rates of patients with cardiovascular diseases significantly, as researchers found
      Stimulates bone growth (high impact aerobic exercise), reduces risk of osteoporosis
      Increases stamina or endurance - aerobic activity increases the body's ability to store energy molecules such as fats and carbohydrates within the muscle
      Increases blood flow through muscles
      Improves muscles' ability to use fats during exercise, thus preserving the intramuscular glycogen.

      We all human being must make exercise daily at least 30 to 45 minutes to maintain health for future life and old age. No walk, no exercise in life is injurious to health.
