Exercise is, as we all know, very important. Not just running, or weight training, but also yoga and pilates as well.
At Elite Health Hawaii, we believe that wellness encompasses lifestyle changes that benefit your health. There are many types of exercises out there to meet your needs and desired outcomes. Find what you enjoy and do more of it!
Flexibility Exercises
Flexibility exercises can include yoga, Pilates, and stretches.
Here’s why flexibility exercises are beneficial:
Aerobics and Cardio
Keep your heart healthy with aerobic exercises. No matter if you’re an athlete or not, aerobic activity increases your endurance. As a result, you can perform better in everything, whether it be work, sports, school, etc. There are all these benefits to exercise. Good examples of aerobic activity include:
Strength Training
Weight training can help build and maintain strong muscles. Strong muscles don’t just make your body look good, but they also take the load off your joints. There’s less stress across the knee, for example; by keeping your knees strong, the muscle absorbs more of the stress rather than the joint.
Overall, you want to have a balance of all types of exercise. There’s less chance of injury with people who have strong muscles and are flexible.
