Why even one workout will make you happier? 🌝

Depressive symptoms are associated with reduced activity and functionality.

✔️ Simply- you don’t want to move if you are experiencing depressive moods.

Physical inactivity is one of the most important behavioral risk factors for cardiovascular disease and mortality in adults.
☀️In contrast to depression, emotional well-being is a subjective state of wellness and life satisfaction. Nevertheless, emotional well-being is a primary component of health- related quality of life.

🔋 Any physical activity stimulates release of dopamine and serotonin, chemical playing important part in your moods. Simply- make you happy 😃

1. Blood pressure 🩸

Studies have shown that physical activity outdoors lowers a person's blood pressure and heart rate. As a result, exercise outdoors feels less strenuous than similar exercise indoors, which, in turn, pushes you closer to your maximum performance. Train outdoors, push yourself to the limit and keep breaking your personal record!

2. Anti-depressant 🆘

Outdoor exercise provides a mental health boost. Moving outdoors has been shown to reduce anger and depression and improve mood (Barton and Pretty, 2010). Exposure to sunlight enhances vitamin D production, which may be partially responsible for this mood-enhancing effect. Especially crucial in post- isolation times.

3. Self-esteem 🕺🏼💃🏼

Research shows that as little as five minutes of outdoor exercise can improve self-esteem (Barton and Pretty, 2010). Any outdoor location will do, but being near greenery or water enhances this effect. Interestingly, low- to moderate-intensity physical activity shows greater improvements in self-esteem than high-intensity outdoor exercise.
