Work
out an exercise plan that works for you. Regular
exercise promotes so many positive aspects of our health that
there are no good reasons for not doing it. By increasing your
heart rate moderately - for as little as 20 to 30 minutes a day
- you'll not only start looking and feeling healthier, you can
also help:
- decrease
bad cholesterol;
- increase
good cholesterol;
- reduce
triglycerides; and
- lower
blood pressure
Best
of all, your exercise plan does not need to include high-impact
activity...so go walking if you want!
Whatever
activity you'd like to do - whether it's jogging, cycling, swimming,
tennis, or just plain walking - speak to your doctor about helping
you create a plan that works for you.
The
rewards of a healthy lifestyle are well worth the effort. Hopefully,
you should begin to feel the benefits of a healthy diet and exercise
plan soon after starting. By modifying your lifestyle, you may
not only feel better, look healthier, and increase your energy
level, you could also lower your cholesterol - an important step
toward improving your health.
