By now, hardly anyone disputes that being well-nourished and exercising are two basic pillars of health. Or, to put it another way, a sedentary lifestyle and poor nutrition are at the root of many of the diseases we suffer from.
And within being well-nourished we can include both what we obtain through diet and what we obtain through supplementation.
Of course, there will always be approaches that are a little out of the ordinary. You may have heard this before: "I run about 10 km every day, so I can eat whatever I want."
Or maybe you know someone close to you who's moved from bed to car, from car to office chair, from office chair to sofa, and from sofa to bed. And back again.
Generally, nothing is good in excess, nor in default.
Exercising every day doesn't entitle us to live off of processed baked goods, as we'll likely see in the medium term, after conducting the necessary tests, that we're not in the best physiological condition.
In any case, it's now abundantly clear that a sedentary lifestyle is linked to numerous health problems, so regular exercise is essential in our daily lives.
If you haven't yet decided to get started, here are ten reasons that might help motivate you:
1) Numerous studies have linked physical exercise with a lower risk of developing cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, diabetes, or cancer.
2) Physical exercise helps reduce stress and anxiety. It can also improve mood.
3) Exercise helps you lose weight. And while cardio is often the focus, it's also very important to incorporate some simple strength training routines. Strength training also helps you lose weight and contributes to the prevention of sarcopenia and other muscle and even bone health problems.
4) Depending on the type of exercise we practice, it can help us correct our posture, improve certain back problems, and improve overall flexibility. Back problems and spinal injuries currently affect many people. Pilates or yoga can be two good options in this case.
5) Exercise can help improve coordination, reaction speed, and balance, helping you stay agile and avoid potential falls or injuries caused by stumbling, clumsiness, poor reflexes, and the like.
6) It helps strengthen bones and prevent osteoporosis. Again, strength training plays a crucial role in this case.
7) Helps improve endurance. With all that this entails: Can't keep up with your children or grandchildren's games? Do you end up exhausted just from shopping? Do you give up on some more adventurous plans with family or friends because you don't feel "up to it"? By exercising regularly, you'll be more than ready for any plan that's proposed to you.
8) It gives you extra energy. For everything mentioned in the previous point, or anything else you can think of. You don't just need the stamina to endure, but also the energy to help you get going.
9) It helps improve your intellectual performance. More and more studies link physical exercise with improved intellectual capacity: improved memory, improved attention span, longer concentration, and more.
10) It helps strengthen the immune system. Exercise has been proven to help strengthen defenses, but at this point, it's also important to consider that exercise can accelerate cellular oxidation. Therefore, at certain training levels, using an antioxidant can be just as important as taking recovery supplements, protein formulas, or certain vitamins or minerals.
