The British Journal of Sports Medicine recently published a study that signifies the importance of including as minimum as 11 minutes of excercise in our daily routine. According to the study, only the 11 minutes of excercise a day can significantly minimize a chance of untimely death by 25%. The study, which is the biggest of its kind to date, analyzed health information of more than 30 million people to find links between physical activity, illness risk, and death.
According to study, even a small quantity of exercise may considerably lengthen life expectancy and reduce the risk of developing heart disease, various cancers, and passing away from the two main causes. According to the study’s findings, starting a regular fitness routine might save 1 in 10 premature deaths.
Despite the fact that health organisations recommend 150 minutes of exercise each week, a recent research indicated that those who just exercised for 75 minutes per week—or about 11 minutes per day—were 23 less likely to die than those who did not exercise. Exercise for just 11 minutes every day reduces the risk of heart disease by 17% and cancer by 7%.

Leandro Garcia, the lead researcher of the study, says that anyone wishing to include physical exercise into their everyday routine can begin with easy and quick activities such as parking your vehicle a little longer distance from your workplace, using the stairs instead of the elevator, or dancing with your children in the living room.
The study does not verify that exercise causes significant benefits, but it does demonstrate connections between more activity, longer lifespans, and lower illness rates. There is a chance that other factors, such genetics and money, are involved. But nonetheless, the results offer a motivating push for people to include physical exercise in their everyday routine. Exercise is good for your health, even a little amount is better than doing no exercise at all.
The latest research concludes with a suggestion that we all should inculcate a habit of doing excercise everyday to maintain our physical and mental health.
