Never too late to start exercising
There is no “from” period and “to” period starting out an exercise and creating better health habits. The moment you get aware of the benefits it brings to your beauty, career and outlook in life – do it! When you start walking or even just use your treadmill and stationary bike at home you improve your exercise efficiency. You get to have a lighter effect, change in mood and change in the way you think and decide on things. Your mind seems to work when you burn those fats out instead of sitting on them!
Those who maintain physical activity burn more fats and lose less muscle than those who focus on pure diet plans without exercise. People lose lean muscle mass with age. Losing much could be risky and may interfere with daily living. Exercise produces metabolic changes which require burning of calories to perform physical activity. Tablets, pills or multivitamins do not and can never replace proper diet and physical activity. Grow old healthy and mentally alert – exercise daily!
