Why Exercise Regularly?

Why Exercise Regularly?
 
 
Here are just a few of the benefits of exercising regularly:
 
1) Exercise decreases your blood pressure, making it easier for your heart to pump blood, which reduces the overall work of the heart
 
2) Exercise decreases your heart rate/pulse, which allows the heart to work less
 
3)Weight control - If you maintain your eating volume and walk 10 miles a week, you will lose 1/2 pound per week
 
4) Exercise can help cholesterol by increasing the "good" cholesterol
 
5) Exercise slows the progression of heart disease
 
6) Exercise boosts your confidence
