Half of the weight management puzzle is exercise. The other factor of course is diet, but the role of exercise cannot be understated. Whether your trying to lose weight or gain weight, you need to make sure you are exercising regularly.

You also need to make sure you are doing the right type of exercise to meet your goals. For weight loss aerobic exercise can be very beneficial. Various methods such as riding, running, swimming can be used. For gaining weight and increasing muscle mass resistance training is the way to go.

Disease prevention 

Exercise is beneficial in preventing disease. It plays a role in preventing cardiovascular disease, diabetes and a range of other diseases.

Regular exercise keeps the blood vessels flushed, by pushing blood around the body. It keeps the heart in good working order, it is a muscle like any other in the body and needs to be trained.

Exercise increases insulin sensitivity which makes it easier for the body to control blood sugar levels. High or low blood sugar has dangerous effects on the body, and needs to be kept within its normal range. Exercise helps the body to do this.

It has also been linked with mental awareness and there is certainly some merit to the old saying "to have a fit and agile mind, you need to have a fit and agile body".
