Whether for adults or children, sports have always been regarded as a way to maintain physical health and mental health. Here are some benefits that exercise can bring to our health.

1. Physical exercise that helps us keep healthy is closely related to our health. Proper physical exercise exerts pressure on bones, muscles, ligaments and tendons to make them strong and healthy. Physical exercise also helps to burn calories in the body, thus reducing the chance of obesity. At the same time, our myocardial performance and endurance will be improved, so we can also reduce the risk of heart disease. Physical exercise can also trigger the utilization of sugar in the blood, and glucose is converted into energy, thus playing a role in balancing blood sugar. In addition, physical exercise also helps to fight against diseases such as cancer.

Second, it helps to improve our mood. Whether jogging, playing badminton or swimming, we can all feel happier and more relaxed. Physical exercise will lower the level of stress hormones in the body. When we play sports, our attention will be diverted from the daily pressure, and staying active can help us avoid falling into the quagmire of negative thoughts. This kind of physical activity can also stimulate the production of endorphins, which are natural mood enhancers and help to suppress stress and depression.

Third, it helps to improve our sleep quality. Physical activity can improve the quality of sleep, especially in modern society, many people are troubled by insomnia, and physical activity can help us fall asleep faster and deepen our sleep. A better sleep can improve our mental outlook and our mood the next day. But be careful not to exercise too late in the day. Exercise within a few hours before going to bed may make you energetic and unable to sleep.

Fourth, it helps to enhance our self-confidence. Regular physical exercise helps to enhance our self-confidence and self-esteem, especially when our strength, skills and endurance are enhanced through exercise.
