Benefits of Cardiorespiratory activities or exercise...

Decreases:

  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Coronary artery disease (CAD)
  • Hypertension
  • Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus
  • Cancer
  • Osteoporosis
  • Obesity
Increases:

  • Sense of well-being
  • Blood lipid profile
  • Insulin sensitivity
  • Glucose tolerance
  • Immunity
Find something you enjoy, and do it daily.  Yes daily.  Even if its only for about 10 to 20 minutes, daily exercise is very beneficial.  I work out daily because I personally enjoy it and it helps me feel better too.  Combine this with eating better, and you'll be on your way to hitting your health goals!!!
