benefits of physical activity for healthy lifestyle

                Benefit of physical Exercise 

The health benefits of physical activity are recognized. Regular physical and sporting activity helps improve general fitness at all ages.



Health benefits

Physical activity is highly recommended to prevent chronic diseases and contribute to the treatment of a large number of long-term conditions such as cancer, diabetes or obesity, but also neurodegenerative and psychiatric diseases.

The pleasure of sport

When we practice a sporting activity, the body secretes hormones such as endorphin, dopamine or adrenaline which reduce stress, improve the quality of sleep, reduce pain and act as an antidepressant, so it is above all a source of pleasure.

The social bond

Sport is a wonderful creator of social cement, passion and citizenship.  For the youngest, sports associations are a privileged place to meet new people, grow well and flourish, while respecting others. And it allows you to gain confidence and autonomy.
