From P.E. class in elementary school to the 5am spin class that sounded like a better idea the night before, exercise is an important part of our lives. For some, it’s more of a lifestyle.
The Department of Health and Human Services recommends that adults aim for 30 minutes of physical activity a day.
Benefits of exercise include improved physical and mental health, increased energy, lowered risk of chronic disease, and enhanced sleep quality.
However, like sleep, exercise is one of the first facets of health to get pushed to the back burner. Busy schedules and many responsibilities, general tiredness or lack of motivation are usually to blame for this unfortunate circumstance.
