Benefits of Exercise
Study after study shows that regular physical activity – even at moderate levels – reduces the risk of heart disease, cancer, high blood pressure and obesity, and enhances physical and mental functioning.

Despite this, a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that 55% of American adults didn't move enough in 2010 to meet the minimum recommendation of 30 minutes of moderate physical activity on most days of the week. And a Gallup Health and Healthcare Survey found that just 45% of Americans regularly engaged in vigorous exercise in 2012 – down from 52% in 2010.

We believe the key is to find the right exercise for you. If it is fun, you are more likely to stay motivated.
