Benefits of Personal Training

 

The US Surgeon General’s Report on Physical Activity and Health was released in July 1996.

 

The Surgeon General’s Report, based on a large body of evidence, showed that physical activity:

 

· Lowers the risk of dying prematurely and from heart disease

· Reduces the risk of developing diabetes and high blood pressure

· Helps maintain weight and healthy bones

· Helps lower blood pressure in those with high blood pressure

· Promotes psychological well-being

 

The report recommended 30 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise on most, if not all days of the week.

 

Positive effects of physical activity:

 

· Improved cardiovascular efficiency – improves the functioning of the heart and lungs, reduces total cholesterol and the risk of heart disease, regulates blood pressure and promotes higher activities of daily living

· Weight control – (energy balance)

· Improved posture

· Stress release

· Improved sleep patterns

· Psychological benefits – feel better about self

· Reduced risk of degenerative disease

· Faster recovery after disease, injury, surgery

· Relieve many aches and pains

· Greater movement ability (range of movement and strength)

· 37% reduction in the occurrence of breast cancer in females training at least for four hours a week.
