Amazingly, yes! Exercise is being called the most powerful drug of the 21st century. Research all over the world has shown the benefits of exercise. Exercise can increase muscle size and strength. It improves circulation and digestion. Exercise that puts a load or strain on the muscles and tendons helps build bone strength, too.
Exercising at least three times a week at moderate intensity is recommended for all adults in good health. This will help maintain healthy muscles and bones, boost the immune system, improve coordination and balance, and prevent injuries and disease. Talk with your doctor about finding a good exercise program for you.
