Long Term Effects Of Fitness

Its no secret that incorporating a fitness routine into your daily life can have a profound effect to your journey for longevity. Ever here a little goes a long way. Well, in this case that couldn't be any more than the truth. Exercising can be a burden for most people especially those pressed for time. Not everyone can give up an hour or two at the local gym, then again there's no golden rule that says you have to spend an hour or so exercising to reap the benefits. If you can make an effort create a 30 minute routine for yourself your on the right track.

Creating an exercise routine that taxes your Circulatory, Respiratory, and Muscular System can help you perform better under stress. Below I am going to break down the long term effects of exercise.


Circulatory System
  • Taxing your cardiac muscles helps build thicker, stronger walls resulting more blood to be pumped per minute.
  • Your resting heart rate can decrease due to more a efficient circulatory system.
  • Your arterial wall becomes more elastic allowing for greater productivity for changes in blood pressure. 

Respiratory System
  • Your respiratory system muscles become stronger resulting in greater oxygen intake. 
  • Increased VO2 max.

Muscular System
  • Increase in rate of energy production.
  • Your muscles, bones, and ligaments strengthen enabling them to handle greater amounts of stress.
  • Your muscles become capable of storing larger amounts of glycogen for energy.
  •  Faster metabolism.
