Benefits of regular exercise . . .
Industry studies and medical journals report daily on the benefits of regular exercise. Besides other tangible benefits, regular exercise helps people feel more energetic, more alert, more optimistic, more self-confident, more creative, more productive, more relaxed, and even more attractive.
Regular exercisers realize that when they exercise consistently they feel better in almost every way. They are less moody, less anxious, less insomnia, are less prone to anger, are less likely to become depressed, and are less vulnerable to self-loathing.
Exercise trade-off . . .
Expending 100 calories by exercising is the equivalent of burning off two Oreo cookies, eight Saltine crackers or four cups of plain popped popcorn. You can burn 100 calories by cycling vigorously for 20 minutes, walking briskly for 25 minutes, playing 10 minutes of squash or racquetball, or bowling for 45 minutes.
