Benefits of Exercise



Benefits of Exercise

Why bother about exercise and fitness anyway? For years, experts around the world have been studying the benefits of fitness. Researchers have compared fit groups of people with unfit groups, studied the changes in people who have become fit, and looked at the deterioration in people who have lost their fitness.

Research has found that the health benefits you gain by being fit are:
• Stronger muscles and bones
• Bigger heart and lungs
• Improved posture and appearance
• Greater resistance to illness and disease
• Improved Sleep
• Improved Self-Image
• Reduced stress and tension
• Less boredom
• Less fatigue
• More opportunities to meet and make friends
• Enjoyment from being part of a team.

In other words, you body works better and you feel better if you are fit. That’s why it is worth using some of your leisure time to improve your fitness.
