People naturally love to laugh, but few people know that laughter is also a good fitness exercise. Every time you laugh, there are about 80 muscles involved in the exercise from the face to the abdomen. Laughing 100 times can exercise the blood circulation of cardiopulmonary function, which is equivalent to rowing 10 minutes. Unfortunately, when people reach adulthood, they only laugh 15 times a day on average, which is much less than 400 times a day when they were children. This is at least a regrettable loss of health. As long as you laugh, the muscles of your mouth and cheekbones will follow, and your mouth and eyes will be pulled up to prevent facial lines from falling.

Because the muscles of neck, back and waist are in a fixed position for a long time, excessive tension and contraction can easily cause headache and low back pain. Laughter can make muscles in some parts contract, muscles in other parts relax and relax, so that tired muscles can relax during exercise. This is really a good way to relieve spasmodic pain. People with this kind of occupational muscle strain will undoubtedly benefit a lot from this special exercise as long as they laugh often.
