Why ?

The human body is designed to move. Exercise is good for health. According to Public Health Agency of Canada :

« Physical activity plays an important role in the health, well-being and quality of life of Canadians. People who are physically active live longer, healthier lives. Active people are more productive, and more likely to avoid illness and injury. »

As you know now, it is strongly advisable to engage in major muscle group strengthening activities at least twice a week in order to improve your posture and balance. Reinforcements help increase strength, power, endurance and muscle mass. These strengthening exercises have a favorable impact on bone structure and improve strength. Aerobic exercises of moderate intensity (rhythmic walking, dancing, water aerobics, etc.) for a weekly total of at least 2 hours are also recommended to optimize the benefits of physical activity. These aerobic exercise should be divided into several sessions during the week. These sessions can vary from 10 minutes or more depending on your tolerance. Furthermore, aerobic activity, also called endurance activity, improves your cardiorespiratory capacity.
