More About Fitness

Fitness is an important part of your overall health. Beyond the physical benefits of maintaining a fitness regiment, it can also help with mental and emotional issues like self-esteem. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/fitness/basics/fitness-basics/hlv-20049447 Regular physical activity may also reduce your risk of depression and help with sleep disorders. The CDC recommends doing aerobic exercise or a mix of aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities 3 to 5 times a week for 30 to 60 minutes to obtain the mental health benefits of regular physical activity. The CDC also found that some scientific evidence shows that even lower levels of physical activity can be helpful. Fitness is clearly an essential part of maintaining a healthy mind and body. http://www.cdc.gov/physicalactivity/basics/pa-health/index.htm#ImproveMentalHealth
