Do I have to go to the gym to keep fit?
1, there is no need to go to the gym. With the explosive development of gymnasiums, spinning training classes and ultra-long marathons, people often think that exercise is both expensive and extreme. However, the researchers found that if you want to improve your health, what form of exercise is not so important.

2. In a large-scale global study focusing on the benefits of physical activity on heart health, the researchers found that exercising for 150 minutes per week can reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and death. Most importantly, this paper recently published in The Lancet shows that all forms of physical activity are equally beneficial to the heart.

3. Dr. Scott Lear, from the Department of Health Sciences at Simon Fraser University in Canada, said: I won't spend money on sports. Our research shows that non-recreational sports, including work, housework and walking, are conducive to reducing the risk of premature death and heart disease.

Even cleaning or walking for half an hour after meals can help you prevent premature death and chronic diseases.

5. Researchers tracked the exercise level and cardiovascular morbidity (including heart attack, stroke and heart failure) of more than130,000 adults in 17 high, middle and low income countries and all-cause mortality.

6. During an average of seven years of follow-up, they found that people who do more than 150 minutes of physical activity every week are healthier than sedentary people. Their risk of heart disease, stroke and cardiovascular disease is low, and so is all-cause mortality. 2.5 hours of exercise per week can reduce the risk of premature death by 28% and heart disease by 20%.

It seems that all forms of exercise can reduce the risk of death and heart disease, whether it is sweating in the gym, doing housework or walking.
