There
are so many ways on developing habits to have a healthy body. Just like those
who are using prohibited drugs, they have a term “high”. Let`s use that word in
a positive manner, let`s be “high” on exercising. It simply means that it`s okay
to be addicted in doing exercise at least once a day.
GET HIGH ON EXERCISE...
There are lots of reasons why we
should do exercise at least once a day. It has so many positive effects to our
health. Lack of regular exercise can lead to weight gain and increase the risk
of having high blood cholesterol. Some people will need to take medicines prescribed by their
doctor to lower their cholesterol in addition to eating a low saturated fat
diet to reduce the risk of having a heart attack caused by hardening of the
arteries. But if at the first place, they had a habit of having regular
exercise, they will not need to spend money to buy their medicines and also,
their lives will not be endangered.
Some
people takes exercising for granted, they just do it to impress someone, to
look tough and to be presentable. It`s okay if they want to look nice but they
must think of the best reason why they are exercising, their health.Our lifestyles have changed dramatically. With ever-increasing advances in
technology we have become physically less active. The most prevalent diseases
we suffer from today, i.e. heart disease, stroke, cancer, are related to our
lifestyles, of which physical activity is a major part. Physical activity
should be part of our daily and weekly routine. It is as essential as sleep
and nourishment. Although many of us know that exercising will reduce the
risk of disease and illness, the thought of exercise can still be
overwhelming. Myths that contribute to an inactive lifestyle are that
exercise has to be difficult, it has to hurt and you have to do lots of it to
be beneficial. These are all false. Exercise is about enjoying a physically
active lifestyle (e.g. walking or cycling to the shops rather than driving)
that includes increasing your heart rate (such as brisk walking) a few times
a week.
Having a regular exercise is the
best way to have a healthy body, but even though you are exercising almost
every hour, if you can`t control your eating habits, you will have a hard time
regulating your weight and lowering your cholesterol. Self-discipline is the
most important thing a person should have in order for him or her to achieve
his or her goals. Think of the positive effects of exercising before it`s too
late for you. “Prevention is better than cure."
