Why is the warm-up phase of your training program important? Reduces the risk of injury and increases the heart rate for muscles to receive oxygen. 3. Why is the cool-down phase of your training program important? Reduces the risk of injury and promotes flexibility.
For example, regular brisk walking can help you: • Maintain a healthy weight • Prevent or manage various conditions, including heart disease, high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes • Strengthen your bones • Lift your mood • Improve your balance and coordination The faster, farther and more frequently you walk, the greater the benefits. Walking and biking are both excellent forms of cardiovascular exercise which, when performed regularly, can ward off disease, shed pounds, improve mental outlook and reduce the likelihood of dying young. Each have their merits and drawbacks, and which is the best choice for you largely depends upon what you'll enjoy doing most, the health of your joints and how much weight you'd like to lose. “Like walking, biking is low-impact and easy.

Question 5: Does HITT (high intensity interval training) exercise produce greater health benefits when compared to traditional exercise? Exercise is one where a person exerts mental and physical strength to produce aerobic activity and is clinically proven to prevent health problems that are associated with numerous long-lasting illnesses and diseases (Gibala et al, 2012). There are two main categories of exercises: High Intensity Interval Training or Traditional exercises which are both discussed in this review. High intensity interval training (HIIT) or high intensity intermittent exercise is a form of physical exercise where a person is performing intermittent bursts of vigorous activity that exceeds anaerobic threshold for a couple of minutes combined with rest periods of inactivity or low intensity exercises (Nybo et al, 2010) such as walking which is repeated several times. This is done because it is said to increase aerobic capacity therefore having more oxygen intake as well as the prevention of hypertension and improving cardiovascular diseases and consequently improving quality of life in patients with heart failure or coronary artery disease (Guiraud et al, 2012, p 599).
Furthermore, if the student exercises on a regular basis, he or she begins a schedule. Schedules are often effective in treatment of depression symptoms because they allow for organization of the day. Exercise helps to improve the student’s physical health. Many depression symptoms can be alleviated through the improvement of health. In fact, some depression symptoms are caused by health issues.
Lastly, exercise increases macrophage production, salivary immunoglobulin A, and increase immune cell circulation improving the function of the immune system. Psychologically, they diminish anxiety and depression, control stress and minimize its negative effects on the body, improve self-esteem, self-concept, and body image, and improve cognition and problem solving. There are two types of fitness, aerobic fitness and muscular fitness, with their own benefits. Aerobic fitness pushes your body and forces it to adapt to adapt to the overload that the exercise is causing when trying to complete continuous tasks. This will later enable you to participate in harder workouts and exercise in the future.
Learners are often called upon to make small, subtle movements to improve their alignment. Over time, this will increase learners’ level of comfort in their own body.

Moreover, the study also showed that at the same time, growth hormones are also stimulated while running, which helps people look younger. As a result, these factors prevents people from aging. Another benefit of running is it againsts diseases. The common diseases can be reduced by running are stroke and breast cancer.
We have seen the toll that it takes of their lives. We are hoping that with this study we might be able to improve their quality of live by reducing the affects of hypertension through an enjoyable program. We want to create a program that can form a new active lifestyle for hypertensive people which will benefit them long after the study is completed. LITERATURE REVIEW In the American Journal of Hypertension a study was conducted to determine the relationship between different types of physical activity and cardiovascular risk among hypertensive subjects. They wanted to determine the correlation of daily work activities, regular exercising and regular physical leisure time activities can have a noticeable impact in reducing cardiovascular risk.
