Healthy Living

The benefits of exercise are far reaching, and at LivingWell you'll find all the advice and encouragement you need to get the most out of our first-class facilities.

While many people think exercise is just about looking good, it actually goes a lot deeper. Your physical wellbeing really can help determine the long-term quality of your life.

An aerobic or cardiovascular plan, carried out regularly at a suitable intensity, can improve the pumping action of the heart and performance of the lungs. It also helps reduce the risk of conditions such as heart disease and strokes.

Weight training can also have a positive impact on the body as it ages, helping to keep metabolism high and potentially delaying the onset of osteoporosis.

Additionally exercise can help boost energy, strengthen and tone muscles, raise stamina, lower cholesterol, reduce body fat and, consequently body weight.

Exercise could even slow the ageing process and improve your looks - skin may look clearer and younger as more toxins are passed out of the body when active.

Exercise also has a hugely positive effect on your state of mind. When you work-out, 'feel good' chemicals called endorphins are released, meaning you're happier and less stressed, anxiety is reduced and your mental sharpness and quality of sleep are improved.
