PHYSICAL BENEFITS
Consistently followed training routines also provide numerous physical benefits, including:​
​
-
Improved cardiovascular health: Regular body exercise improves the health of your heart and blood vessels by reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. It helps to strengthen your heart, increase blood flow and lower blood pressure.
-
Increased muscle strength and endurance: Full-body workout routines help to build and tone muscles, which can improve your overall strength and physical ability. A good workout plan can also increase endurance, allowing you to perform physical activities for longer periods of time without getting tired.
-
Better flexibility and balance: Total body workouts can help to improve flexibility and balance by stretching your muscles and improving coordination. This can reduce the risk of falls and injuries, especially in older adults.
-
Improved lung function: Exercise routines that include cardio can help to increase lung capacity and improve oxygen flow to the body, which can help to reduce shortness of breath and improve overall lung function.
-
Boosted immune system function: Workouts have been shown to have a positive impact on the immune system, helping to reduce the risk of illness and infection.
-
Lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels: Regular body exercise can help to lower high blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke.
-
Better bone density and reduced risk of osteoporosis: A good workout routine can help to improve bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis, especially weight-bearing exercises that put stress on bones, such as running and weightlifting.
-
Improved insulin sensitivity and better management of diabetes: Fitness routines can help to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose control, reducing the risk of type 2 diabetes and helping to manage the condition in those who have it.
-
Enhanced weight control: Full-body workout routines can help with weight control by burning calories and promoting muscle growth. Regular exercise combined with a healthy diet can help with weight loss and weight management.
-
Improved sleep quality: Exercise routines can help to improve sleep quality by reducing stress and anxiety levels, promoting relaxation and improving overall sleep patterns.
​
MENTAL BENEFITS
You can control your mind by exhausting your body. Exercising the full body has been shown to have a positive impact on brain health.​
​
-
Improved cognitive function: Regular body exercise have been associated with improved cognitive function, including memory, attention, and decision-making. This is thought to be due to increased blood flow to the brain, which brings more oxygen and nutrients to brain cells. Exercise has been shown to improve the communication between brain cells and increase the strength of the connections between neurons, known as synaptic plasticity, which can enhance cognitive function and memory. Exercise has been also found to improve decision-making skills, particularly in activities that require cognitive efforts, such as problem-solving or planning.
-
Increased production of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF): BDNF is a protein that promotes the growth and survival of brain cells. Workouts have been shown to increase the production of BDNF, which can help to improve brain plasticity and protect against age-related cognitive decline.
-
Enhanced neurogenesis: Regular body exercise has been shown to promote the development of new brain cells in the hippocampus, which is part of the brain responsible for learning and memory. This increased neurogenesis can help to improve brain plasticity by increasing the number of cells that can participate in learning and memory processes.
-
Reduced risk of neurological disorders: Fitness routines have been shown to reduce inflammation in the brain which can help to protect against neurological disorders including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and other forms of dementia. Body workouts also help to alleviate symptoms of depression and anxiety.
-
Improved mood: Exercise routines have been shown to improve mood, reduce stress, and increase feelings of well-being. This is thought to be due to the release of endorphins, which are chemicals in the brain that act as natural painkillers and mood elevators.
-
Better sleep: Regular full-body workout routines can help improve the quality of sleep, which is essential for maintaining overall health and cognitive function.
-
Protection of the brain against injury: Workouts have been shown to enhance neuroprotective mechanisms that protect the brain against injury. This is thought to be due to the ability of body exercise to increase the production of antioxidants that protect brain cells from damage.
ADDITIONAL BENEFITS FOR KIDS
In addition to fighting the risk of over-wright and obesity, fitness routines have the following benefits for the overall development of kids.​
​
-
Focus: Total body workouts before and during academic activities, such as regular physical activity breaks during class, can help children to maintain attention and focus.
-
Regular exercise routines have been found to increase attention and focus, particularly in activities that require cognitive efforts, such as learning new tasks or reading. Studies have shown that regularly exercising the full body is associated with improved academic achievement, particularly in areas such as attention, concentration, and classroom behavior.
-
Behavior: Regular workouts have been found to be associated with improved behavior, particularly in areas such as impulse control and self-regulation.
-
Motor skills: Motor skills have been found to be positively associated with working memory and attention. This may be because movement and body fitness exercises are closely linked to cognitive processes such as attention, memory, and decision-making.
-
Psychosocial functioning: Regular whole-body workouts have been found to be associated with improved psychosocial functioning, particularly in areas such as self-esteem, self-worth, and self-concept.
