Health Tips; Know What To Do To Stay Fit!

What To Do To Stay Fit: It is very easy to stay fit. For this, you neither need to lift heavy weights in the gym every day, nor run on the treadmill. Jogging for a few minutes in the park every day and walking and working instead of sitting all day is enough.

According to a recent study published in the journal Lancet Global Health, almost half of the adult population in India, i.e. 49.4%, is not physically active. The worrying thing is that this figure has more than doubled compared to the year 2000, which was only 22.3% at that time. The study also found that women are more physically inactive than men. 

People are not able to take out even 15-20 minutes daily for fitness

According to the World Health Organization (WHO), to remain physically active, adults should do at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activities or 75 minutes of vigorous activities in a week. But people in India are not able to take out even this much time for their fitness.

What can be the consequences of an inactive lifestyle

Indians are genetically more likely to develop non-communicable diseases like heart disease and diabetes at least a decade earlier than others due to an inactive lifestyle. Lack of physical activity means you are increasing your existing risk factors.

Ways to avoid the disease

You don't need to go to the gym or exercise for hours. Use the stairs, and skip the elevator. Walk to the bus stop or ride a bicycle. These small changes are also beneficial. Choose activities you like doing such as dance classes, or swimming for exercise. If you have been away from exercise for a long time or have any health problems, then consult your doctor before starting any new exercise.
