FITNESS:WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS IN YOUR BODY WHEN YOU EXERCISE


 WEIGHTS OF HEALTH.

We are back....I promised you we will be talking about taking care of that body and realizing what actually happens behind the exercise.
Most people exercise but do not actually know the benefits of the exercises.This is very important to actually know what exactly happens in your body when you visit that gym.
Most people just think of  a smooth  and clearer skin that goes along with a sexy body. But here is more to note.

Muscles, which use glucose and ATP for contraction and movement.
Lungs. As your muscles call for more oxygen (as much as 15 times more oxygen than when you're at rest), your breathing rate increases. Once the muscles surrounding your lungs cannot move any faster, you've reached what's called your VO2 max—your maximum capacity of oxygen use. The higher your VO2 max, the fitter you are.
Heart.  your heart rate increases with physical activity to supply more oxygenated blood to your muscles.
Brain. The increased blood flow also benefits your brain, allowing it to almost immediately function better. As a result, you tend to feel more focused after a workout.
"When you work out regularly, your brain gets used to this frequent surge of blood and adapts by turning certain genes on or off. Many of these changes boost brain cell function and protect from diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's or even stroke, and ward off age-related decline."
 Exercise, in fact, is one of the most effective prevention and treatment strategies for depression
Joints and bones, as exercise can place as much as five or six times more than your body weight on them. Exercise can help you to maintain healthy bone mass as you get older. 

It is now clear the weights you lift in the gym indeed improve your health from head to toe.

  1. doing regular stomach exercises helps your body to attain a better posture because the muscles will be stronger. it makes one flexible and improves digestion when one does the exercises regularly.

  2. Running is also an important type of workout as during this ones heart starts beating faster thus directing blood to the muscles and away from the body functions the individual doesn't require at that given time such as digestion.
    This therefore enabling your body to shuttle oxygen and burn-fat and glucose.

  3. Bones are also involved when exercising. Sometimes people who are heavier than their bodies tend to suffer more from arthritis because the bones cannot sustain their weight. Therefore it is important to exercise in order to make the body fit and to avoid straining the bones too much.

  5. i think easy exercises like jogging, walking can be the best for the heavy people and they should not also jog for long distances, they can do it by timing themselves everyday may be jogging for 300 or 400 meters which is not much for them.

  6. Most people usually want quick results when exercising, you can't like run for only two days and expect to lose 10kg's, it may take time depending on the type of exercise and the time you spent exercising.
