Why exercise? What’s in it for you? I found this article in a sports medicine site and I chose exercise because that’s something more people could use. If a drug existed that could help you lose weight, live longer, build muscles, avoid heart disease, prevent cancer, lower your cholesterol and blood pressure, and improve your mental health, would you take it? You should know that it requires a time commitment.
You would need to take that drug three to five times a week, and each dose would take about 30 to 45 minutes to work. Also, the would drug cause most people to sweat and breathe heavily, but only during the time it’s administered. The “drug” that I just described to you is called exercise. And if there was a pill that could do all these things people would defiantly buy by the tons. So why don’t people exercise? Maybe it needs an advertisement or a radio show whatever it takes to get people to exercise it needs to be done.
Activities in all things: Walk briskly during everyday house hold chores, shopping/errands. Take the stairs instead of the elevator( don’t be lazy) Park your car farthest from the entrance of the mall door or your job And many more Exercise is one of the most important steps you can take to a long, healthy, and prosperous life. So how do you get started? Staying motivated is probably the toughest part of exercising even if you are a “true jock”.
