Due to COVID-19 pandemic situation forced us to stay at home for our protection. Some people have habit of morning walk , evening walk and exercise in Jim. That is fine. But, we can not go outside of our home due to situation and we are working from home. Have you utilized some time for health by doing any health exercise ? Have you observed gain in your weight?
So, PLEASE START and DO SOME HEALTH RELATED EXERCISE . Start Now. This is right time to make a good habit.
I heard and we also know that " 1. Money Lost- Nothing Lost, 2. Health Lost - Something Lost, 3. Time Lost- Everything Lost"
Now situation is reverse. Health is most important than Time and Money. If Health is there you can give time for work and then money and then life.
I started simple aerobic exercise from last month . After experience of 40 days, I am now feeling better and better. Do you?

Exercise: Food for metabolic health in the times of COVID-19 pandemic
Yes, COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in forced-inactivity during the lockdowns coupled with increased calorie-intake by affluent societies of the world. This must have caused the people to gain more weight and bad metabolic health. The sane and wise people are taking care of their health by using healthy diet, and having some time of the COVID-19 news on the media by doing exercise.
Many countries when relaxing the lockdowns are first opening the parks and beaches for much needed jogging by the young, and leisure strolls by the elderly and playful activities by children.
Of course, we can, because the physical inactivity will inevitably lead to more health problems that may extend beyond COVID 19.
Yes. Especially in this current situation, a little bit of excercise everyday, even at home;, beomes foundamental not only for our health but also psychological well being. Physical activity reduces stress and anxiety and improves mood and sleep quality.
Exercise has become inevitable for all our good health. There is no second thought to it.
I have just decided to add the Canadian airforce fitness exercises to my daily routine. No equipment needed. No space and only about 12 minutes a day.if I try to do something too complicated I never manage to keep it up. Small habit changes are good.I noticed actress Helen Mirren and prince Charles (of Britain ) do them. Both seem good examples of ageing well.
Yes, absolutely. Maintaining our physical and mental health is really important during this pandemic situation since most of us are working from home and sitting in one place. One of the important benefit of exercise is it boosts our immune system, and we can do many things even in a small space. Such as, jumping jacks or marching that benefit both physical as well as improve our mood and accomplishment in this stressful time.
Yes, I do a lot of exercises at home.
Yes, I have gained extra kilograms
Just do any physical exercise as per your capacity and time ( minimum 30 minutes) regularly for 8 to 10 days. START Today and Share your Experience . If you continue it for at least one month you will be WINNER. Continue further............. then you will notice change and you will smile. It works
Definitely. Exercise and diet are important for our physical health and emotional wellbeing. Any exercise is good, whether it be at home or outside. I set aside half to one hour every day for exercise. At home I will do exercises such as pilates and yoga or dance, and I may use a treadmill or exercise bike. Whenever I can, I prefer to go out for a walk or bike ride. A well balanced nutritional diet with plentiful variety of vegetables and fruit, will help to maintain both physical and emotional health.
Certainly. I suspect that if you do not already have an exercise program, then in most countries it should be possible to access online video exercise programs.
I suggested the Canadian air force exercises because they were very well thought out, have stood the test of time, are available to watch online, require NO equipment, are simple to learn, and only need small space and since they exercise the whole body in about 10-12 minutes could fit in with anyone's life even the most busy. You can be as poor as possible and still be able to do them. I like things that are available to the most disadvantaged. That is what I like for all forms of medicine and health promotion. I myself am attempting to add them to my good habits. I also have a dog who is a good "personal trainer" since she insists I walk for about an hour every day come rain or shine. not everyone has the time and space for a dog though, or the money and the inclination to have one.
