According to the American Heart Association, roughly 250,000 people
die each year in the US because of a lack of regular physical activity!
Regular exercise has
a myriad of proven, positive health benefits, particularly for your
heart.
Vigorous exercise strengthens
your heart — resulting in a stronger "blood pump"
and a more efficient muscle.
In numerous studies,
exercise has been shown to boost HDL 'good' cholesterol, lower 'bad'
cholesterol, improve blood circulation, lower blood fats and lower
blood pressure.
It reduces your risk
for cardiovascular disease, heart attack and stroke.
Exercise strengthens
and tones muscles and it improves your flexibility. You'll have
stronger bones, which will help you prevent osteoporosis (bone thinning
& weakening).
