What should I do for exercise?
Every style of exercise serves a purpose. There is usually more than one way to accomplish the same fitness goal. Most people are looking to get fit, lose weight, and look good. Almost any type of exercise can do that when accompanied by a balanced diet. There are different people who are fit, healthy, and look great who are involved in one or more of the following activities: running, swimming, cycling, weight lifting, dancing, martial arts, boxing, yoga, pilates, basketball, tennis, racket ball, baseball, soccer, football, horseback riding, aerobics classes, and so on. What these people all have in common is that they are extremely active and they have a diet to support their activity level. Any activities that are challenging and safe for your body should be adequate. To promote long lasting physical health, try to choose activities that are balanced and work the whole body. Many activities can lead to imbalance in the body, which will eventually lead to injury. So, depending on the activity you choose, you might want to also incorporate some sort of corrective or preventative exercise program to prevent injury and allow you to keep active for a long time.
