Get your 30 a day
When you’re feeling run down it’s hard to believe that exerting yourself actually gives you more energy, but here’s how it works.
When you exercise regularly your muscles adapt and increase in size, boosting your metabolism (fat burning) and stamina. Your heart and vascular system (which transports blood) also become more efficient, improving the delivery of energising oxygen that reaches your cells so you feel more awake. The more you exercise, the more efficient this process becomes and the more energy you have.
