Exercise is bodily or mental exertion, especially for the sake of training or improvement of health.
Exercise can also refer to the using of a power or right. Example: The president exercised executive privilege in the dispute.
Health
How to achieve radiant good health through exercise and natural means was Bernarr Macfadden's central message throughout his entire life. [1]
- Exercise is health!
“There’s no medicine that’s more important than exercise,” Daniel Lieberman, chair of Harvard’s Human Evolutionary Biology Department.
Injuries
Most people know about runner’s high. But for most runners, injury is as much a part of the experience as euphoria. Studies vary widely, but it is estimated that between 30 and 80 percent of regular runners are injured in a given year. Shin splints, runner’s knee, iliotibial band syndrome, plantar fasciitis: For many years, everyone from coaches to biologists to casual joggers has accepted such injuries almost as a necessary evil... But a growing number of researchers, many of them at Harvard, are convinced it doesn’t have to be that way. [2]
