How Does Exercise Help With Stress?

Stress is defined as a state of emotional or physical tension. It can be triggered by any event or thought that causes you to feel frustrated, angry, or nervous.

Consider attempting moderate aerobic exercises such as:

• biking

• vigorous walking or jogging

• swimming or water aerobics

• participating in tennis or racquetball

• dancing

• rowing

Consider weight lifting or resistance band exercises when it comes to muscle-strengthening exercises. Even something as simple as gardening or taking the stairs instead of the elevator can provide an emotional boost. Any type of exercise can improve your fitness and reduce stress. However, it is critical to select an activity that you enjoy rather than dread. If you dislike the water, avoid swimming as an activity. If the thought of running makes you nervous, training for a 5K race will not help you relax. Experiment with various activities until you find some that you enjoy. You'll be more likely to stick to your workout routine if you're having fun.

Working out with others can also add to the stress-relieving benefits of exercise. Sharing it with family or friends can make exercise more enjoyable and less like work.
