Many people are introduced to fitness when they wish to lose or gain weight. It is not only important when you want to look a certain way but also impacts your daily activities in more ways than you know. 

For example, a fit person would not feel exhausted after climbing a few set of stairs or carrying bags of grocery, walking a little more than usual or taking their pet out for a walk. Exercising can increase your stamina, help regulate your blood pressure and carry on with your day without feeling lethargic. 

If you don’t have any fitness goal related to your weight, there are many other reasons for you to get started. Here is why fitness is more than just losing weight: 

• It reduces the risk of developing heart diseases and keeps cholesterol in check. 
• It improves the capacity of your lungs and strengthens them.  
• It has a positive impact on your body and mind. Having a fitness routine to follow encourages you to do better and that applies to both exercising and other tasks in life. 
• You feel more energised and focused. It helps you concentrate on your tasks better and be more productive.
• Strength training helps in building stronger muscles, improves bone density and reduces back pain. 
• Exercising releases happy hormones and helps in reducing stress to a point. It is a great way to channel your energy into doing something productive. 

Even if you don’t want to lose weight incorporating exercise into your life will have an overall positive impact and you would be able to see changes in your lifestyle as well.
