As J.F. Kennedy noted, “Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity.”
If in the past you have been maintaining a sedentary lifestyle, you are doing injustice to yourself and those close to you. Therefore, to keep yourself physically fit, you not only need to follow a well balanced diet, but you should also participate in a proper exercise regimen too.
Physical fitness not only improves our quality of life, but also helps us in the long term. It increases cardiovascular fitness and body endurance. Regular exercise can also help increase the strength of your heart.
What’s more, being physically fit also increases blood circulation and helps it to deliver oxygen and nutrients to all the tissues. This not only helps the muscles increase your overall body strength, but increases its ability to exert force and sustain contractions.
Physical fitness makes your joints and body more flexible, and regular exercise results in a decrease of body fat. It increases lean body mass, resulting in a balanced and healthy body composition.
Never negate the importance of physical fitness, and work towards achieving a healthy disease-free body!
