We all know the values of regular exercise
and activity, but do you know why this is of
benefit to us? Regular exercise and activity
goes towards building a strong immune system.
Exercise can range from gentle walking to weight
resistance training. Obviously, your current
health conditions will dictate what type of
exercise you can manage, but making the effort
to keep mobile on a daily basis offers a variety
of benefits:-
-
Blood oxygenation
-
Stimulation of the lmyph
system
-
Boosting of the immune
system
-
Strengthening of the heart
and circulatory system (cardiovascular exercise)
-
Increase in the production
of endorphins (mood boosting chemicals)
-
Prevention of osteoporosis
(weight resistance training)
Gentle trampolining (also known as rebounding)
is a very useful method of exercising during
illness, as it can be regulated to your own
speed and there is no impacting on joints, as
the trampoline absorbs the gentle impact. See
resources
for suppliers.
