Exercise keeps your body and mind fit

Exercise increases the body’s resistance to many pathogens. When we’re in good shape, we’re better able to cope with stress, our memory works well, and we’re more active. The good feeling that comes from exercise is based on physiology. Our brains produce so-called feel-good hormones: endorphins and enkephalins. Among other things, they block the passage of pain impulses and increase our feelings of wellbeing.

Just a few sessions of exercise a week will improve your overall fitness, muscle strength, balance, and coordination. A great way to take care of yourself and your wellbeing is to get out and about in nature.

You should remember to adapt your exercise level to your mental and physical situation. The amount of exercise you are doing is suitable when you feel good even after a workout. It is important to take pleasure in physical activity. It is also important to exercise in moderation; rest and breaks from exercise help the body to recover.
