Now, listen again while you check the comments with the audio
transcription. You will have another activity at the bottom.
There are many forms of exercise,
ranging from walking to a work-out in the gym. No amount
of physical activity harms a healthy person. The human
body is adapted to take on countless forms of exertion,
and, in fact, demands it. The aim should be to have two
or three exercise sessions every week of about 20
minutes each.
The more you enjoy the exercises you
do, the more likely it is that you will continue doing
them, so it's important to choose something you like
doing, but remember not to try and get fit instantly. It
doesn't work like that. Start gently, enough to make you
breathless and perspire, and gradually work up your
activity over the first four weeks.
It's likely that if you do exercise
you'll sleep better, you'll wake more refreshed and
you'll be a healthier person.
