SURPRISING BENEFITS OF EXERCISE!
We all know exercise is good for us, but there are more than just cardiovascular benefits to moving your body on a regular basis. Perhaps these reasons will help you to get up and go!
GROWS CARTILAGE
Ignore the naysayers who say exercise such as running is bad for your knees - this isn't necessarily true. Australia's Monash University conducted research that suggests that the impact of running can increase cartilage production, which can safeguard your joints from arthritis.

SHARPENS HEARING
Exercise improves circulation to the ear, which provides a greater supply of nutrients to help preserve hearing. Recent research at Bellarmine University found that very fit women were six percent more likely to have better hearing than less-fit women.

BEATS MIGRAINES
A study conducted at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden found that migraine sufferers experiences fewer headaches when they worked out for 40 minutes three times a week over three months. To prevent that migraine, you're better off exercising as opposed to reaching for the pain killers.

REGENERATES MUSCLE
It is thought that muscle mass declines over time, but new research from the University of Illinois found otherwise. Exercise triggers a type of stem cell (mesenchymal stem cells) to spur other cells to generate new muscle. That process could prevent age-related muscle loss.

EASES ANXIETY
Are you anxious about an upcoming presentation at work or feeling stressed about a project you need to complete? If so, exercise could help! Researchers from Southern Methodist University near Dallas found that people had significantly milder reactions to stress if they engaged in regular intense aerobic exercise.

PREVENTS CANCER
Finnish researchers studied 2,560 middle-aged men over 17 years and found that the most active men were the least likely to die from cancer, especially in the gastrointestinal tract or lungs. The more intense the exercise, the better.

INCREASES BRAINPOWER
To see how exercise stacks up against other mental stimulants, University of Illinois researchers exposed mice to three types of brain boosters—savory foods, new toys, and exercise wheels. The wheel was the only tool that improved cognitive function.

STRENGTHENS BONES
According to researchers from the University of Missouri, weight-bearing exercise increases bone density, which guards against fractures and osteoporosis. High-impact exercise, such as running, appears to offer the greatest protective benefit.
