  2. We have poor diets, rarely exercised and my parents,
  3. my siblings and as well as myself all suffer from being overweight.

  5. And today I want to express the benefits of having a healthier lifestyle.
  6. So my question to you is are you an athlete? Do you exercise regularly?
  7. Did you know that? Exercising on a regular basis could be considered a cure all.
  8. It can fix a number of issues we suffer from such as depression, anxiety,
  9. better sleep.

  12. supply the body with natural hormones
  13. Then ultimately lower risk of some chronic health issues like heart disease,
  14. many types of cancers, high blood pressure, type two, diabetes and more.
  15. Well, according to google,
  16. an athlete is someone who is proficient in forms of physical exercise.

  19. Well, if you think no,
  20. I am honored
  21. to be the one to tell you that. Yes. Yes you are.
  22. You've actually been working out
  23. since the day you were born,
  24. breathing and sleeping are two exercises we've been doing since day one.

  26. But these are some of the most basic exercises none of us really ever think about.
  27. But let me tell you
  28. you
  29. our professional.

  47. practice breathing and balance and stability.
  48. Eat good and most importantly get rest
  49. right.
  50. Physical activity gives us energy.

  52. That literally gives you a sort of high compared to morphine
  53. while simultaneously boosting your attitude,
  54. blocking pain receptors and making you feel good
