Male Fitness - Effective Or Not

By Jody Page

So how vital is men's or male fitness? Fitness is vital for everybody and plays a huge role in almost everybody's lives, but did you know that the fittest men always live the longest?

Regardless of their age or even genetics, yes a history of heart disease in the family isn't an element here, if you exercise constantly and are in great shape you are sure to live a long and healthful life.

When to Start

It isn't too early or too late to start your fitness routine. Mavens advised that kids as young as 6 should pack in one hour of vigorous activity a day! Sounds strange, but it is advised by the best America can offer and we all know the benefits of exercising as we grow older, that does not need an introduction.

A lot of middle aged men are too wrapped up in their professional and family lives to find time to exercise. What they don't realize is that staying active and healthy throughout lengthens your life and allows you to live longer so that you can enjoy all those things you've worked so difficult for. The most vital thing to do when you reach your 40s is de stressing.

So if you ask me what the best strategy of keeping fit after you reach a mature age is, I'd endorse yoga and meditation because this not only allows you to have a fitter body, it also gives you inner strength, peace of mind and most importantly, lowers your stress levels.

you may also go for anxiety management classes. But do whatever is needed to de-stress. This is one area of men's fitness which men have a tendency to ignore. Remember men's fitness isn't just about pumping iron in the gymnasium. Being mentally fit is vital too.

That is not to say that you can skip the gym or the jog! No sirs, if you are not doing yoga frequently, then you know how important it is to go to the gymnasium and get your regular dose of cardio, together with your stress control classes.

Don't underestimate the importance of male fitness in your lives, it is very important to stay fit and feel good about yourself as you age. - 29957
