Daily Exercise is Good for You!

How much exercise should you do in a day? Well, there’s no hard and fast rule as you have to remember that every person is different. But while every person will require a different amount of exercise, there is no getting away from the fact that it is highly beneficial to your health if you can exercise every day.

So what should that exercise consist of?

Well, again this is something that is completely up to the individual, but any exercise that you can do each day will be of benefit to your health. You can try something as simple as walking, which is surprisingly good for you as long as you walk with a decent pace and not merely stroll along. A good half hour or longer walk each day will help to keep your metabolism in good order so that you will burn off calories every day to stop you gaining weight.

Other good forms of exercise that can be quite enjoyable are cycling or swimming. Cycling is great if you have quiet streets and not too much in the way of traffic or obstacles, although its not so great if you live in a built up area where there is heavy traffic. Swimming is something that everyone enjoys and it exercises all of your body’s muscles. A good half hour a day swimming will keep your body in trim shape and keep the weight off as long as you don’t gorge yourself on cream cakes and other fattening foods as soon as you get out of the water!

Other great ways to exercise include sports such as badminton, volley ball, tennis, table tennis or even having a kick around the park with a football with some friends is useful.

Whatever you do, try to it each day and your health will improve for doing it!
