Exercise and mental health
People who exercise regularly have better mental health and emotional wellbeing.
Exercise not only boosts our mood, concentration, and alertness, but improves our cardiovascular and overall physical health.
Exercise doesn’t have to be strenuous, structured or take a long time to have benefits.
Any exercise is better than none, but experts recommend you should be active most days, aiming for a total of 2.5-5 hours of moderate physical activity, or 1.25-2.5 hours of vigorous physical activity per week.
