DISCOVER THE VALUE IN DOING PHYSICAL EXERCISE


If you have no time for physical exercise, then prepare for sickness!! Use your body or lose it.  If you don't use your body, you will surely lose it.

If feel burdened in my heart if I do not alert you of the impending disaster that is going to destroy your life if you ignore physical exercise in your life!

Have you seen moody people, sickly ones, dull ones, lazy ones, and the obese?  Chances are many they have ignored / neglected/ under looked this single aspect of physical exercise.

I have personally seen many people die at tender age in the name of heart attacks, blood pressure and many other ailments still because they have ignored physical exercise. 

In Africa not so many people engage in deliberate physical exercises, apart from sports men and women. The African men try to some extent but not the women. However, I have seen the whites do the exercises routinely both men and women.

These exercises take different forms but not limited to: - running, jumping, skipping, digging, riding bicycles, swimming and others. When you do any of them you are putting your body at work.

Friend reading this message, physical exercise is meant for all of us who need to live longer and healthy bodies. It is a good choice to take up. 

There are many of us who work in offices where work requires long hours of sitting, and when it comes to moving we use cars. In addition the office apartments have lifts to move you from one level to the next. This kind of work is desired by many people, but it is a silent killer.

Now, if you want to feel better, have more energy and to live longer, your solution is none but exercise. The health benefits of regular exercise and physical activity cannot be ignored.  The young and old, female and male all need physical exercise.  

 Exercise controls weight. Engaging into physical exercise is a measure to prevent excess weight gain and a tool to maintain weight loss. You burn extra calories when you engage in physical activity. The more you carry out the activity, the more calories you burn. The extra calories would instead cause you to fatten.


 Exercise prevents poor health conditions and diseases. Regular physical activity  help you prevent or manage a wide range of health problems and concerns, including cardiovascular diseases, stroke, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, depression, arthritis and falls. That little time you put aside for exercise can surely save you from these problems and increase a smooth vascular blood flow.

 Exercise chases stress and improves good mood. When you have had a stressful day, and you need an emotional lift, go and workout your body. Take a walk, do some running or jumping, go for gym. In only 30 minutes the stress will be gone. You will be feeling happier and more relaxed. Your confidence and self-esteem grow with regular exercise, because whenever you accomplish your goal you are an achiever.

 Exercise boosts energy and fitness of muscles. I bought a car, so my levels of exercise went low. At home we got piped water so I carried water no more for long distances. Because of the car, I did all the shopping just simply. One day when I went to church I met the church pastor fetching water from the tap which is fairly distant from his house. I decided to help him. So I lifted two twenty litre jericans and moved swiftly. By the time I got to his house, I couldn’t move any more, I was to dizzy to do anything. I squatted there until when I normalized. I realized my problem and I started again. Am now very fine.

It can improve your appearance and delay the aging process through exercise. The symptoms of aging invade us earlier if we neglect exercise. And of course the body appearance fades with lack of exercise. People who do exercises look much younger than their age.

Exercise is important if one is to sleep better. After you have worked out your body, relaxed your mind and mood improved, when you go to bed you go to bed, it is sure deal that you will enjoy the sleep. Try it, you will see the results.

 Exercises are important for good body posture. They keep your body flexible. Improving your flexibility through exercise improves balance and coordination and reduces the chances of injuries. If you feel some of your body parts stiff or tense, do some stretching to loosen the muscles.

With the above information given to you, I request you don’t wait to be first stricken by disease that you will wake up. Mother / father your children dearly need your presence in the best healthy condition. Don’t disappoint them by dying because of neglecting this important aspect of life. Love then, your relatives and nation by elongating your life through physical exercise.
