The importance of exercise for a healthy body is well documented and confirmed by scientific and medical research. Most experts agree that a daily routine of mild exercise is necessary to maintain general health and wellness. There is considerable evidence to suggest that exercise may even prolong our life span. A fit body has a stronger immune system and makes us less susceptible to illness and disease. General fitness makes us feel better, allows us to become more alert, and even improves our sex lives.
Exercise is particularly crucial in any weight management program.
Yet, even knowing all these things about the positive benefits of exercise, most human beings find it difficult to maintain a consistent exercise routine. Mostly, we suspect our slothfulness is due in part as a result of our mechanized and computerized culture. Agrarian and hunting societies did not need to plan exercise because it was ingrained in their everyday lives. However, since the majority of the population in the industrialized world does not perform manual labor for a living, we must somehow find a way to interweave some type of exercise into our daily routines. There is a secret to doing this.
