If you are still in doubt whether to go to the gym, I advise you to read the material below. In it we are told in detail what changes will occur in your body after only one (!) sports.

Now imagine what miracles are capable of regular exercise... Look!

Physical exercises help to release so-called stress hormone — cortisol. Due to this, a person becomes much calmer, no anxiety and restlessness. That is why if you have scheduled some important event, for example, public speaking or an exam, it is recommended that the morning exercise in the gym.

Scientists from the State University Chenggong in Taiwan the study on laboratory rats found that a one-time exercise (e.g., running wheel) leads to increased levels of serotonin, dopamine and norepinephrine. These chemicals are trying to regulate with antidepressants, so they are closely associated with the person's mood.

Professor of neurobiology Wendy A. Suzuki found that only one exercise is able to increase activity in the prefrontal cortex region of the brain where the receptors responsible for memory and attention.

Why this happens is still unclear. But scientists suggest that it may have something to do with the change of blood flow in the prefrontal cortex or increased levels of lactic acid, which is used to recover after a workout.

Creativity is useful in solving many problems, and no matter in what field you work in. And to develop creativity is by doing some sport. Due to the fact that exercise helps to get rid of stress, improves the functioning of the hippocampus — a brain area critical for memory.

It also "turns on" when the imagination of the future, sometimes even stronger than the memories. Therefore, scientists believe that sport promotes creative thinking. Especially if people change the mode of exercise and constantly trying something new. However, even a single physical activity has a positive impact on this aspect of brain activity.

Swedish scientists once discovered that in just a few minutes of physical activity in adults, though very slightly, changing the genetic material in muscle cells. Naturally, their DNA we inherit from parents, but a way of life and many other factors can play a role in the functioning of some genes.

As in the case of minor changes of DNA after just one sports minor adjustments in the metabolism of fat in the muscles. So, for example, researchers found that only one cardio training increases the accumulation of fat, and this, in turn, improves insulin sensitivity.

Low insulin sensitivity or insulin resistance is one of the causes of diabetes.

Well, now you know that physical activity is very important in your life? And what sports do you do?
