The benefits of exercise
There are many reasons to add some exercise to your daily schedule. Here are some of the many benefits of exercise:
- Exercise burns calories. The more calories you burn, the less likely you are to gain weight and the more likely you are to lose it.
- Exercise increases your metabolism (the speed at which your body burns calories).
- Regular exercise may increase the amount of muscle in your body. Muscle burns calories faster than fat. So the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn.
- Regular exercise helps your body work better.
- Regular exercise gives you more energy and curbs your appetite.
- Exercise decreases stress and can improve your mood.
- Exercise helps you sleep better.
