Being physically active can help you achieve a healthy weight and
prevent excessive weight gain. However, physical activity is also
important to all other aspects of your health. Benefits include sleeping
better at night, decreasing your chances of becoming depressed, and
helping you look good. When you are not physically active, you are more
likely to have health problems, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes,
and high blood pressure.
