cards up your sleeve It gives you a reserve of energy thats ready to use at the end of the day Its this extra energy reserve that allows you to do the things you enjoy shopping dancing skating partying participating in a game or just simply playing for a while with the children Youll find you con meet the challenges of the day much more easily Youll discover you have more time increased energy a feeling of well being increased productivity reduced stress and better sleep patterns Thats why you do need to exercise We all know people who seem to get tremendous enjoyment out of life They have a tremendous vitality and zest for living- whether its the thrill of skiing down a hill or the joy of climbing up an escarpment to discover a superb view These are the rewards youll never get from any television set movie theatre or sedentary pursuit Youve heard before but it bears repeating exercise may not necessarily odd years to your life but it will add life to your years Very simply everyone needs to be healthy Our bodies were made for activity and without exercise they just wont function at an efficient level HOP SKIP AND JUMP Most of us go through our youth with a hop skip and a jump and it seems to come as naturally as breathing But as the years go by we lend to fall gradually into lazier ways Partly this is a problem of the society we live in We drive cars instead of walking We watch television instead of enjoying a physical hobby We arc spectators at sports events rather than participants Our Jobs are mental rather than manual and the world Is filled with labour saving devices Today our bodies arc doing less and less And the less we do the harder it becomes to do anything if you dont use it you lose it But getting back Into stupe neednt be an enormous effort It neednt be unpleasant It can be and in fact should be fun If you re between the ages of 20 and GO and wish to start your way back to fitness The Hern Id Sports Week will help you
