Importance of Exercise!
Regular physical activity can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance (as well as your mood!). Exercise delivers oxygen and nutrients to your tissues and helps your cardiovascular system work more efficiently. And when your heart and lung health improve, you have more energy to tackle whatever your day may challenge you with!
