Our body is built to move

We are built for a physically active life. Physical activity strengthens the heart, makes the blood vessels work better, creates confidence, strengthens the bones, is good for the joints, shapes the body and activates the brain at every age. Physical activity floods the body with oxygen. A lack of physical activity leads to a higher risk of illnesses such as heart disease and circulatory dysfunction. Inactivity might also lead to back or joint pain, being overweight and type II diabetes. Our muscles, joints, hormones and metabolism need physical activity to function properly.
