Exercise improves your health and prevents disease. When you begin reducing calories, you basal metabolism will begin to slow down to conserve energy and your body will begin to consume itself to produce energy. Exercise

  4. The very best way to increase your metabolism is to become more active. Regular exercise will nearly double your metabolic rate. Remember, exercise is anything you do that causes you to breathe more deeply than you normally would and or causes your heart rate to speed up. Exercise

  5. Each time you exercise, you are helping your body release the tension of the stress response, making it feel calmer, safer, and healthier. Regular exercise will trigger the parasympathetic nervous system allowing you to feel more relaxed and peaceful. It will also trigger the release of endorphins, your body’s natural pain killers. The reason people avoid exercise is that they have not linked it to these pleasurable feelings. Exercise

  6. It is really that simple—if you want to exercise regularly, you must enjoy moving your body both during exercise and after completing exercise. Dr. James Hill found that people who struggle with their weight took 1,500 to 2,000 fewer steps than those who maintained a healthy weight. Exercise

  7. Two types of Exercise: Spontaneous Exercise-This is the type of exercise that you incorporate in your daily life, such as taking the stairs instead of the elevator and parking a little distance from your destination so you can walk a little further. Planned Exercise- This is exercise you plan to do at least three times a week, such as working out with weights, running, or playing a sport. Exercise
