Your body was designed to walk, run, skip, dance, push and pull and move. Exercise until the last century, people had to engage in moderate to perform active daily tasks. People now drive cars, work while sitting at a desk and sit still watching movies and playing video games. Exercise functions to fill the gap between our decreased daily physical activity and our body's natural need to move in order to remain fit and healthy.
Our muscles connect to our bones via tendons and ligaments, they work like levers to support our bones. When you use your muscles regularly, you stimulate the maintenance and growth of muscle tissue. Individuals who don't exercise regularly risk muscle atrophy that can lead to weakness, poor posture and a decline in daily functional health.
Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance. Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system/ blood vessels work better. And your heart and lungs health improves too. In order for people to stay healthy aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate physical activity every day.
If you want to lose weight, maintain weight loss or meet specific fitness goals, you may even need to exercise more. Exercise can help keep your body at a healthy weight and can help a person age well.
