Physical Activities

Physical Activities and Health

Regular physical activities is very important to your health. Here is a list of benefits....

1. Control your weight
2. Reduce your risk of heart diabetes 
3. Strengthen your bones and muscles
4. Improve your mental health 
5. Reduce your risks of some cancers  
6. Increase your chances of living longer



Studies show that heart attacks are rare during physical activity. Start slow because, the risk of an heart attack do go up when you become more active. For example, you can put yourself at risk if you don't usually get much physical activity and then all of a sudden do vigorous aerobic activity, like shoveling snow. If you are not healthy to do physical activities consult with your doctor and come up with a plan that best suits you. As we age, our bones, joints and muscles weaken. They support our bodies but most importantly, they keep us moving and in later years we need them to be healthy. Fractures can have life-changing negative results when you are older. Regular physical activity can help keep your thinking, learning, and judgement skills sharp as you age.
