Running is a great activity to get you in shape. It can put you in a great mood as well as work out almost every body part.
Benefits of running are :-
- Relieves stress by encouraging your body to release excess energy and hormones. It can also reduce the chance of developing tension headaches.
- Eliminate depression by stimulating your brain to secrete hormones which can naturally improve your mood.
- Loose weight since it is the most effective method to burn off extra calories and it is the second most powerful exercise with respect to calories burned per minute.
- Prevents disease and improve general health by promoting good cholesterol levels while increasing lung function.
While running is extremely effective the diagram below shows the proper form to adapt while doing this activity.
Even short runs can leave you feeling more energized, alert and focused. Remember take baby steps. Start by running 20 minutes three times a week. If 20 minutes is too much you can take walking breaks in between.
