There are many benefits to adding running to your fitness regime.

Here we list just a possible top 10 benefits of running

1. Overall mental health
Your body releases chemicals which help with mental wellbeing.

2. Increased lung capacity
Lessens the effects of asthma, helps strengthen lungs and bronchi.

3. Blood pressure

Your arteries expand and contract while running, helping the arteries to stay fit ,which then helps to keep your blood pressure within normal range.

4. Immune system

If you are a runner, suffer less from minor illnesses.

5. Weight loss

You burn 705 to 865 calories/hour. Fat moving Up-Down helps break your fat down.

6. Physical strength

Running builds lower body strength in addition to strengthening your tendons and ligaments.

7. Bone density

Your body sends essential minerāls to bones to strengthen them when stressed. As running stresses your bones, these additional minerals help to increase your bone density over time.

8. Joint strength & stability

By increasing the strength of your ligaments and tendons you increase joint strength and reduce chances of injuries to your ankles, hips, and knees.

9. Confidence

Once you start running, your confidence begins to grow. You’ll feel more in control of your life and your body.

10. Stress relief

Helps to reduce everyday stress levels.

Always check your blood pressure.

Young people can have stroke, heart attack, kidney damage or sudden death. It’s not a spiritual arrow from village.
Sometimes it’s just uncontrolled blood pressure.

If you have not checked in last 6months,
Check your BP today.
Blood pressure monitoring is not hard. Infact you don’t have to go to hospital everytime just to check your BP.

You can get your own BP machine.
Buy at any pharmacy/health store.
Do your own BP at home.

Read the manual/tell the store assistant to put you through how it’s used.

Blood pressure taken at home should be done ideally when you are relaxed and not stressed. Could be morning or evening.

The readings have a top and bottom number.

Normal blood pressure is between 90/60 and 140/90. If it is lower/higher than that range, repeat it in a few mins.

If still lower than 90/60 despite repeating after few mins, but you don’t feel dizzy, lightheaded or fainting; call a doctor for advice. Sometimes it’s due to a medication you are taking, sometimes it’s due to heavy periods as a woman, sometimes you need to drink more water.
If lower than 90/60 and you feel faint, dizzy and lighthearted, go to hospital straightaway.

If higher than 140/90, repeat after few minutes. If still higher than that, what you do next depends on how high.

If higher than 180/120, go straight to a hospital. That’s an emergency.

If higher than 140/90 twice;
What you need to do is:

Don’t panic
Do the BP twice a day for 7days.
Morning and evening when relaxed.
Write down the readings.

After 7days,
Look at the average or give a doctor.
If the average is consistently over 135/85, you may have hypertension.
So if that’s the case,
Go speak with a doctor.

He will check your eyes, check your urine, do some blood tests, do an ECG (electrical activity of your heart), and repeat the BP.

He will then start you on some medications and/or advise lifestyle changes as well as monitor the BP.

For some people wearing this without facemasks just know that when you enter an enclosed space like a bus or shop, u are not that protected.

Since Corona Virus has been shown to linger in the air for while, this alone might not protect you.

If you want to avoid the coronavirus, make yourself healthy, eat healthy and exercise. The best medicine and weapon against COVID19 is your own immunity. If U are overweight, If you are diabetic, have heart disease or lung disease, U are high risk. Stay safe, stay at home; u don't need to expose yourself.

Don't cough or sneeze into your hands. If you do, wash your hands IMMEDIATELY.

7. Stay indoors if you have symptoms such as fever, cough and difficulty in breathing.
