Why Exercise?

You eat well, you're not overweight, so why exercise.?  It's simple, exercise is good for your heart! Numerous studies have found that exercise enhances your entire cardiovascular system, including your heart, which means a reduced risk of heart disease. Your heart is a muscle, if you do aerobic exercise you are working your heart, making it bigger and stronger which will protect it from disease. As your heart gets bigger and stronger it is able to pump more blood which helps deliver oxygen to muscles and carry away waste. It helps lower your blood pressure and a recent study found regular exercise can lower blood pressure by 10 points. It can even prevent the onset of hypertension! So, put your heart into it and get out and exercise!
