TASK NO 1

Discuss sports as exercise

You'll be healthier as a result. Sport and physical activity improve your fitness and mental health. Sports require
you to move your body, and it is a well-known fact that exercise is beneficial to your health. Physical activity,
according to the Mayo Clinic, helps control weight, combats health conditions and diseases, improves mood,
boosts energy, and promotes better sleep. Exercise includes activities such as working out at a health club,
swimming, cycling, running, and sports such as golf and tennis. The majority of daily physical activity is classified as
light to moderate in intensity. Certain health benefits, however, can only be obtained through more strenuous
physical activity.
