Exercise does a body good
There are so many health benefits of exercise, including:
- Conditioning your lungs and heart- Exercise is good for your cardiovascular system and doing it regularly can increase your energy and endurance.
- Building muscle- Want to be big and strong? Exercise strengthens and stretches muscles, making you stronger and more flexible, which comes in handy whether you're taking out the garbage or trying to win a limbo contest!
- Strengthening bones- Exercise helps bones grow strong and even affects strength and height.
- Preventing diseases- Regular exercise can decrease your risk of high blood pressure, diabetes, and even some types of cancer. It also boosts your immune system so you get sick less often.
