Fitness Increases The Length And Quality Of Your Life

The Importance Of Fitness

Reduces Risk Of Disease
Eating well and developing a regular fitness plan are some of the best ways to prevent disease throughout your life. Many different diseases can be prevented and controlled through regular fitness and healthy living.

• Heart Disease
  Getting just 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week greatly decreases your risk of developing heart disease or experiencing a stroke, with more exercise than this benefitting your heart even more. Regular exercise also helps to lower cholesterol and high blood pressure while strengthening your heart, helping it pump more blood through your body.
• Type 2 Diabetes
  Regular fitness helps the body process insulin and helps prevent the development of type 2 diabetes by controlling high cholesterol, high blood sugar, and excess fat.
• Cancer
  One of the main ways to reduce your risk of developing cancer is to stick to a fitness routine. Proper fitness has been shown to prevent different cancers as well as help cancer survivors regain their strength, increase their quality of life, and lower their chances of recurrence.

Better Sleep
Regular exercise helps you sleep by establishing good sleep cycles and releasing hormones. When you exercise, it releases endorphins that help you feel more relaxed and it gives you more energy for your day. This helps you sleep better since you will be awake for the day and your body will be ready for rest in the evening. Even 30 minutes of aerobic exercise in a day has been shown to improve sleep.

Greater Brain Function
Fitness can improve cognition and reduce short-term feelings of anxiety directly after exercise. Regular fitness has also been found to contribute to lower levels of depression and anxiety overall, as well as increased judgment, learning, and thinking skills as you age.

Longer Life
Even 10 more minutes of exercise per day has been shown to increase life expectancy and avoid premature death, with greater amounts of daily fitness resulting in longer lives on average.

Greater Quality Of Life
Incorporating fitness into your daily routine will help you maintain your physical abilities as you age. Regular fitness helps your bones, joints, and muscles be stronger so they can help your body move, leading to greater mobility and independence as you age. Fitness also helps to prevent reduced muscle mass that occurs as we age. By incorporating fitness into your everyday life, you can stay active in your later years of life.
