Benefits of Exercise
Physical activity is vital to inflate our health and deflate our waist size. Building muscle is one components, but cardiovascular training and increasing our flexibility are also part of our waist management plan. Together, the three components of exercise will have numerous effects on our body:
- Exercise increases our metabolism so that we burn energy at a higher rate, and it will also reduces our appetite to some extent.
- Exercise will help us lose the extra weight that’s stressing our joints. We’ll feel less pain in our knees, hips, ankles and back. That will put us into a positive cycle behavior, so that we’ll have the desire to exercise more.
- Exercise stimulates the release of endorphins, which stimulate the pleasure centers in the brain. It will give us a sense of control, which is associated with a decreased need to eat out of control.
- Exercise helps decrease depression and increases positive attitude, so we make other positive choices and don’t have to use food as our medication. That will also help prevent our couch, chair and bed from becoming anti-waist management devices.
- Exercise keeps our blood vessels open and clog-free, thus decreasing our risk of obesity-related morbidities like high blood pressure, elevated lousy cholesterol, memory problems and heart attack.
This by no means an exhausted lists but just trying to make the point.
