Regular exercise is an essential element of good health. Exercise improves cardiovascular disease risk factors and improves physical strength and immunity.
Living in a busy modern society, it often happens that you cannot exercise regularly. In this case, our body sends various signals to exercise.
Here are some of the signs your body sends you about lack of exercise:
1. Back and Knee Pain
Back and knee pain is usually a symptom of aging. However, recently, there are many people who complain of pain due to lack of exercise and wrong posture in the younger generation.
This is because muscle strength is weakened due to lack of exercise and the synovial fluid that reduces friction between bones does not play its role.
2. Indigestion
If you sit or lie down immediately after eating, the stomach cannot perform its digestive function. Conversely, if you exercise, your digestive power will improve and your intestines will be strengthened, which will help prevent constipation.
3. Chronic fatigue
Regular exercise improves your stamina and helps you keep a clear mind throughout the day. Therefore, if you feel chronic fatigue, it is a sign that your body is getting tired due to lack of exercise.
4. Decreased cardiorespiratory function
Exercising people also exhale heavily when climbing stairs because they require more oxygen. So, if you feel short of breath when climbing stairs, there is no need to fret.
However, if you are out of breath and climbing stairs is too hard for you, you should start exercising.
5. Less than 5 push-ups
Push-ups are an exercise that uses all the muscles of the back, shoulders, and arms, and is useful for verifying physical ability. Usually, people under the age of 50 must do at least 5 to 10 sessions to be considered to have a normal body shape.
6. Abdominal obesity
Abdominal obesity causes various adult diseases. Excessive belly fat adversely affects the health of the heart, kidneys, liver, digestive system, and pancreas.
If your waist circumference exceeds 40 inches (101.6 cm) for men and 35 inches (88.9 cm) for women, you should start exercising right away.
7. Increased appetite
When you exercise, you think less about food. If your desire for food has increased compared to before, it may be a sign of lack of exercise.
8. Constipation
Abs and diaphragm muscle health is key to moving waste through the digestive tract. Regular exercise helps maintain regular bowel movements.[End_mark]
