Fitness and sports are not only good for our physical health, they also improve the quality of our lives overall.

Improving Mental Health Through Physical Health

Aside from the obvious physical benefits of regularly hitting the gym and working out, studies have indicated that exercise can positively benefit a person's mental health as well. The CDC says,

Some benefits of physical activity on brain health happen right after a session of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Benefits include improved thinking or cognition for children 6 to 13 years of age and reduced short-term feelings of anxiety for adults. Regular physical activity can help keep your thinking, learning, and judgment skills sharp as you age. It can also reduce your risk of depression and anxiety and help you sleep better.
