Friend, chances are you should be exercising more.
I get it—if you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a thousand times. You know exercise is vital for good health.
But the MORE often people bug you about it, the LESS you feel like listening, right?
Well, sometimes, a study is just too big to tune out, and a discovery is too important to ignore. And this is one of those times.
It’s time to sit up and take notice because what researchers have found could save your life.
An international team of scientists analyzed data from 199 studies covering more than 20 million people, and what they discovered was both simple AND revolutionary.
You could slash your risk of premature death, chronic diseases, and health complications by a jaw-dropping 20 percent simply by doing something you ought to be doing anyway… sneaking in some regular exercise.
You just need to make sure it’s the RIGHT kind.
Simply engaging in some good old-fashioned aerobic exercise—the kind that gets you breathing harder and your blood pumping—can significantly reduce your chances of dying early from ANY cause, including cardiovascular disease, cancer, and sudden cardiac events.
In fact, folks with high cardiorespiratory fitness levels had a 41 to 53 percent lower risk compared to those who were less fit.
But don’t lose hope if you can’t exercise daily because every bit helps.
The study, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, found that for each increase in fitness, there was an associated seven- to 51-percent drop in mortality risk, depending on the cause of death.
That means you don’t have to be a gym rat or a marathon runner to see significant REAL-WORLD benefits. And if you’re already active, pumping up the exercise intensity by just a bit can make a huge difference.
Take the stairs instead of the elevator or go for a brisk walk during your lunch break. You may consider joining a dance class or try out a recreational sports team that gets your heart rate up and your lungs working harder.
The beauty of aerobic exercise is that there are so many ways to do it. And you don’t need fancy equipment or expensive gym memberships. All you need is a willingness to move your body and challenge yourself.
The science couldn’t be clearer… engaging in regular aerobic exercise can add years to your life and significantly improve your overall well-being.
Remember, every little bit counts—and it’s never too late to start making positive changes in your life.
P.S. Find exercise exhausting and painful? Don’t fret… try THIS natural fix.
