Aerobic exercise is any type of exercise that makes your muscles use oxygen. You may be wondering what other benefits exercise offers. Well, calisthenics actually plays a large part in a person's mental health. This is because exercising causes the body to produce endorphins or chemicals that arouse the feelings of peace and happiness. Types of exercise requiring deep breathing can also relieve tension, just as someone engrossed in a high power sport rids themselves of painful emotions.
Exercise can also help with self-esteem.
If you are feeling strong and powerful, it can help you see yourself in a better light.

Some team sports that are good for pouring on the oxygen are swimming, basketball, soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, ice and roller hockey, and rowing. These include biking, running, aerobics, dancing, in line skating, and fast walking.
