Why Exercise Important ?
This is the basic question that some people say they agree it’s important but never do it with a lot of excuses.
So here I am to state it again EXERCISE IS REALLY IMPORTANT !
We can ask our dietician, doctor, professional healthcare even google it there's seldom article that states exercise is bad for us.
I was an exercise hater during my school days.
Physical Exercise (PE) was the most subject that I hated and even I ever failed this subject in my exam.
Jogging / running was out of questions. I would prefer to hide in the changing room or canteen.
When I was attending Freshman Orientation in the university, to my surprise it's packed with full physical exercises.
We jogged day and night, played games full of running, jumping etc. I was so exhausted and I ate and binge even more food. It's calories in > calories out.
With addition to study pressure, I was in the heaviest weight in my life.
Until my turning point which I stated before in the other page (15 years transformation journey) that I started with non-impact cardio exercise which was swimming.
Then slowly I went to the gym until now and only recently that jogging/running become one of my favourite exercises.
BENEFITS OF EXERCISING (That I personally feel and experience )
1. No doubt we can lose weight with proper diet plans
2. We can increase our metabolism rate, meaning when we are in rest / sleeping, our body still burns calories
3. We are more energetic and stronger
4. We can sleep better and have better mood
5. It lowers blood pressure, blood cholesterol level, risk of diabetes, cancers
6. Have stronger bones, muscles, joints and lower risk of osteoporosis
7. We get back our weight faster post pregnancy and recover better from period of hospitalisation
8. We are more focused in our work and other activity
9. Last but not least not only physically strong, our mental will be much more stronger. We can endure more when we are in the life turbulences. Exercise may block negative thoughts or distract people from daily worries.
Here's my recent health report that surprised my family doctor and when she asked me what's the secret, I told her that I exercised regularly
For beginner, aim for 30 minutes exercise 3x a week.
