Why to Exercise?
If you exercise, you will have a healthy body as well as a healthy mind. Exercise will also give you improved vigor and a well toned body. It will make you feel happier and more active. Exercise also promotes the intake and distribution of oxygen in your body, making you essentially healthy. Aerobic exercises stimulate your circulatory and respiratory system. When you exercise in the morning, you stimulate your metabolism and keep on burning fat even when you are not working out. When you exercise in the morning it also gives you the ability to handle stress better.

When exercising, one loses a lot of water from the body. A tennis player may lose up to 3 liters in an hour. This can make us dehydrated and cause muscle cramping and a loss in stamina. It is hence advisable to drink a cup of water before the start of the game or workout, fifteen minutes into the workout and about five minutes after the workout.

Exercise can help reduce your blood pressure. A normal teen’s blood pressure is 110 millimeters of mercury over 70 millimeters of mercury. A teenager who exercises can lower high blood pressure easily. An active person’s heart pumps 25% more oxygen compared to a normal person’s. Exercise can work for you , but it can also work against you. Before starting any exercise routine, always consult a doctor. When starting for the first time or when resuming after a long time, always begin with a mild workout and gradually increase its intensity.

Studies show that regular exercise improves
  1. Sleep.
  2. Skin.
  3. Joints.
  4. Muscle strength and endurance.
  5. Endorphin production (reduces stress).
  6. Insulin production (helps in prevention of diabetes).
  7. Level of oxygen supplied to the brain.
The key word while exercising is commitment. A committed exercise schedule is defined as
  1. Exercise done 4 to 5 times a week.
  2. Exercise at a level that produces sweat.
  3. Exercise that lasts for about 30 to 45 minutes, moderation is the key.
  4. Exercise that is accompanied by regular meals and a healthy diet of fruits and vegetables.
  5. Exercise that is done in a happy positive mood. If you hate exercising, then you will not benefit from it.
When you exercise everyday, it is important to warm up as well as cool down. The warm up prepares your body for the vigorous workout ahead and the cool down allows your body to return to its normal state. The best way to warm up or cool down is to do the same activity that you are about to do, but slower with lower intensity. When warming up, increase the intensity and when cooling down, decrease the intensity slowly. Make your workout part of your daily routine like eating your breakfast. Lay your workout clothes the night before. This will encourage you to exercise and will reduce lazisness in the morning.

Friends for Life
Teenagers Teenagers
The family as a support system is irreplaceable. The teen years are the time for making new friends, but the support of the family and old friends can be invaluable in coping with the changes and dealing with the stress and pressures of adolescent life. This group of friends is happy after enduring a long trek together.

Get physical
The onset of adolescence is usually followed by preoccupation with new interests. And the changes in the body can be a trying time for the adolescent. As a result, a number of teens tend to ignore their physical well–being. In fact, one must continue to be as active as before. It is not only important to regulate one’s diet, but also continue with all the physical activities as before. Activities such as outdoor sports are not only a good form of exercise, but also a chance to keep oneself fit both mentally and physically. Moreover, they are an excellent opportunity to meet like–minded people.
