Fitness
Aerobic exercise — which is the kind of exercise that gets your heart pumping for an extended period of time — helps you feel better, look better and helps lower your risk of heart disease, as well as prostate and colorectal cancer.
Along with a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise helps you keep your body in top shape just like regular maintence keeps your car in top shape.
