What are the benefits of engaging in sports?

"Exercise for one hour every day for thirty years, and you will be happy for a lifetime." This is what Chairman Mao said. Clearly points out the importance of physical exercise. It is well known that exercise has many benefits to the body, but do you know how many benefits exercise has for the body? Why do we exercise? The editor will take you to understand the changes that exercise brings to our body, so that you can fall in love with exercise.

1. Impact on metabolism

1) Physical exercise can promote the body's tissue cells' ability to absorb and utilize sugar, and increase liver and muscle glycogen storage. Physical exercise can also improve the body's ability to regulate sugar metabolism. For example, under the influence of long-term physical exercise, the secretion of glucagon shows adaptation to exercise, that is, under the same intensity of exercise, the secretion of glucagon decreases, which means that the emptying of liver glycogen is delayed, thereby delaying the onset of exhaustion and increasing the time the human body can continue to exercise.

2) Fat is an energy substance found in high concentrations in the human body. When it is oxidized and decomposed in the body, it releases energy, which is about twice that of the same amount of sugar or protein. Long-term physical exercise can improve the body's ability to mobilize fat and provide more energy sources for the human body to engage in various activities.

2. Impact on the motor system

Persisting in physical exercise will have a good effect on bones, muscles, joints and ligaments. Regular exercise can maintain normal muscle tension, stimulate bone tissue through muscle activity, promote calcium storage in bones, prevent osteoporosis, and at the same time keep the joints more flexible and the ligaments more elastic. Exercise can enhance the accuracy and coordination of the motor system, keep the hands and feet flexible, and enable people to complete various complex movements easily and orderly.

I believe everyone has understood the benefits of exercise after reading this. In general, exercise is to make us have a healthy body and mind. Only a healthy body and mind can make us more efficient in work and study and have a happier family life. So what reasons do you have for not exercising? Staying at home is a culture, but it doesn’t mean you can stop exercising. Stay-at-home guys and girls, exercise more, you may be the next idol.
