Why We  Need Exercise?

 

We have probably heard all about how good execise is for us.It can help develop our muscles and lose weight.We may not realize is that regular exercise helps us cope better with the stress and anxiety we probably face every day,and that it greatly increases our energy level.It can even help us avoid some serious diseases later on in life.

       Some people like to exercise more than others.If we're the wide reciever on our school football team, we will have an easier time figuring out how to be physically active than if we hate the thought of lacing up a pair of sneakers.
        Walking for half an hour before supper,or biking to school instead of taking the bus, is often enough to give your body the exercise it needs.
