Introduction

Everyone is made differently, but there are baseline requirements for how much activity we should all
get. A consistent exercise regimen provides numerous health benefits, including mental health stability,
disease prevention, and enhanced sleep. Getting into an exercise routine can help you do more than just
reduce weight. In fact, physical activity is so crucial that it can help you regulate your mental health, sex
life, sleep pattern, and other aspects of your life. Being physically active has been shown to improve
your quality of life and lower your risk of getting a number of health problems. If you want to include
more exercise into your lifestyle but aren't sure where to start, talk to your provider to establish a plan
that works for you.

BRIEF: What is Physical Activity?

Physical activity can take many forms, including recreation, transportation, and job. Both moderate and
severe physical activity are beneficial to health. Cycling, wheeling, athletics, active entertainment, and
play are all common ways to participate. Regular physical activity can help prevent and manage heart
disease, stroke, diabetes, and other cancers. It can also help with mental health, quality of life, and
overall well-being. Exercise improves one's ability to think, learn, and make decisions. Physical activity
encourages children's healthy development. One in every four people in the world does not meet global
physical activity guidelines. We could save 5 million deaths each year if more people exercised.
Insufficiently active people have a 20%-30% higher risk of death than suitably active people. Over 80% of
the world's adolescent population is inactive.

Regular physical activity can help with arthritis and other rheumatic conditions that affect the joints. In
addition to muscle-strengthening activities, 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic physical exercise
per week improves the ability to manage discomfort and do daily tasks. This has a positive impact on
one's overall quality of life. Improve Your Chances of Living a Longer Life. Physical activity, according to
scientific research, can reduce your chances of dying prematurely from major causes of mortality such
as heart disease and several cancers. This is significant in two respects. First, it is the first time this has
occurred. Physical activity is one of the few lifestyle choices that has such a large impact on your health.
People who engage in physical activity for around 150 minutes per week had a 33% lower risk of dying
from any cause than those who did not engage in physical activity.

So, what are the advantages of engaging in physical activities? Here are some of the advantages we can
attain!

According to Oak Street Health, the benefits we can get are:

1. Mental Health Stabilization

- Exercise is believed to increase endorphins, which lifts one's mood and reduces anxiety and
melancholy. Furthermore, frequent exercise has been shown to help with chronic depression by
gradually increasing serotonin levels, which is the chemical that helps your brain regulate mood,
sleep, and hunger. Regular physical activity helps to keep one's headspace clear and focused,
while also enhancing positivity and general happiness.
2. Increased bone and muscle strength
- As we age, our bone density decreases, and our chance of falling rises along with our risk of
arthritis. However, if a patient chooses to engage in regular physical activity, they are less likely
to experience these problems. According to the CDC, persons who are physically active lose
bone density more slowly and are less likely to suffer a hip fracture. Not to add, doing some type
of aerobic exercise on a daily basis allows one to keep their joints active while growing muscle,
which aids with balance and helps to minimize falls and arthritic conditions.
3. Improved Sleep
- Regular exercise has been shown to assist many people maintain a more consistent sleep
schedule. Being active every day can help you fall asleep faster, get a better night's sleep, and
establish a more consistent sleep schedule. However, it is critical to avoid undertaking any
physical activity an hour before bedtime because it can make you overly energized and interfere
with your night's sleep.
4. Increased Life Longevity
- The CDC reports that physically active people live longer lives overall, stating that "people who
are physically active for about 150 minutes a week have a 33 percent lower risk of all-cause
mortality than those who are physically inactive." When all of the health benefits are
considered, it's easy to see why physically active people live longer lives.
5. Decreased Risk of Disease
- When it comes to preventive health measures, consistent physical activity is invaluable.
Exercising on a regular basis can assist to prevent a variety of medical conditions and diseases,
including but not limited to: Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, Type II Diabetes, Various Cancers,
Arthritis, Metabolic Syndrome, Mental Health Conditions e.g. Depression, Anxiety, etc.
→ According to the CDC, heart disease and stroke are two of the leading causes of mortality in the
United States, indicating that it is a major issue. When patients exercise on a daily basis, their
high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol rises, lowering harmful triglycerides. HDL, or "good
cholesterol," protects against heart disease and stroke. Exercise improves blood flow, lowers
blood pressure, helps maintain a healthy weight, and lowers cholesterol, all of which contribute
to the prevention of diseases such as type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Working with a
provider to develop a diet and fitness plan that fits your lifestyle is essential for keeping your
 body in shape and your mind at ease. Physical activity is also known to lower one's risk of
developing bladder, breast, colon, endometrial, esophagus, kidney, lung, and stomach cancers,
according to the CDC.
6. Boosts Self-Confidence
- One of the primary advantages of a regular workout regimen is that one's physique and weight
are kept under check. Although weight loss is not always immediate, feeling physically and
mentally stronger boosts confidence, increasing energy and improving one's sex life. In addition
to increased self-confidence, physical activity allows women to get more aroused, while males
are less likely to battle with erectile dysfunction. Swinging into an active lifestyle can help you
feel like the best version of yourself, encouraging you to meet new people, learn to appreciate
yourself more, and improve your romantic connections.

WORKOUTS

What are the activities that assist us in achieving the benefits?

There are various types of activities, and a variety of activities are beneficial to overall physical health.
Exercise and physical activity are classified into four types: endurance, strength, balance, and flexibility.
Most people concentrate on one activity or form of exercise and believe they are doing enough.
Changing it up also helps to avoid boredom and lowers your chance of injury. Each type is unique, and
completing a range of exercises can provide you with additional benefits.

Endurance or aerobic activities

Increase your heart rate and breathing rate to keep your heart, lungs, and circulatory system in
good shape. Increasing your endurance makes it easier to maintain an active lifestyle. Walking,
dancing, swimming, stair climbing, riding, jogging, and skiing are among examples.
Strength
Strengthens muscles and promotes bone density (these exercises are also known as strength
training or resistance training). Examples include lifting weights, using resistance bands, and
carrying groceries.
Flexibility
Gentle bending, reaching, and stretching exercises can help keep your muscles relaxed and
your joints flexible. Flexibility enhances joint range of motion. Muscles can lose suppleness and
become weak and tight as they age. Yoga and stretching are two examples.
Balance
Exercise improves balance, posture, stability, and coordination in all forms. Balance is essential
for retaining independence and avoiding falls. Tai Chi, stretching, and standing on one foot are
among examples.

Increased physical exercise can help you reduce your risk even further. Regular physical activity
can also assist to lower your blood pressure and improve your cholesterol levels. Improve your
overall quality of life. Researchers observed that engaging in regular physical activity after
cancer treatment improves your overall quality of life and physical fitness. You don't have to
participate in strenuous physical activity or vigorous-intensity activities to reduce your risk of
premature death. The advantages of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity become
apparent after only a few minutes of effort.
