As you grow older and begin to notice changes in your body, it’s essential to learn more about the daily exercises you can do to maintain your youth. Many of us don’t know that once you begin to age, the protective strand in your body known as telomeres begin to shorten, leading to less protection. This causes physical aging to your body, including less mobility and can lead to more wrinkles. However, you can prevent telomeres from shortening by living an active lifestyle. Continue reading to find out what types of daily exercises you can do to prevent aging.
How can exercises keep you young?
When you exercise, your body can maintain enzymes called Telomerase, which are made up of protein. Telomerase aids as a protectant for the body’s telomeres, which is how exercising can contribute greatly to less aging. With the help of exercise, your body can maintain healthy cellular health.
Which exercises can you do to look younger?
While any exercise is great for the body, a few movements and certain types of workouts are very beneficial to preventing aging, which includes endurance training and high-intensity interval training. For those who are unaware of these terms, endurance training refers to performing exercises that improve your aerobic (breathing) system to increase the length of time you are able to sustain activity. High-intensity interval training is a form of working out where you complete short and fast-paced movements to improve your anaerobic system. These movements require a high demand for oxygen when completing.
What endurance training exercises can you do?
Many forms of endurance training will aid in this type of exercise. These can include walking, jogging, cycling, swimming, jump roping, dancing, weight lifting, and more. Endurance workouts are usually performed at a steady pace for you to improve your stamina and maintain movement for at least 10 minutes. When you can get better at endurance training, you can continuously work on lengthening your time spent on the workout of your choice.
What type of high-intensity interval exercises can you do?
There are hundreds of workouts that involve high-intensity training in short periods of time. It’s common for high-intensity workouts to include a multitude of activities in a row, such as burpees, push-ups, jumping jacks, etc. This type of workout pushes your body’s anaerobic system to work harder, resulting in many health benefits. You can perform other types of high-intensity exercises, including sprinting, mountain climbers, squats, sit-ups, and many others.
There are many other exercises that can aid in your body’s telomerase activity to keep you looking young and healthy. No matter what level of experience you have with endurance or high-intensity training, you can always start with easy workouts like walking, jogging, or jump roping to start your journey to a healthier lifestyle.
