Exercise Towards Beautiful Skin
My mum used to tell me that those who workout and look after themselves through healthy eating and exercise look young in the years to come, I wondered if she was right and done a little research. I already knew that Exercise offers a lot of benefits to women’s health that we often overlook the fact that exercise can improve the health and beauty of our skin too was exciting to me. I found that from increasing circulation to helping to rid the skin of toxins, exercise can give a woman’s skin a natural glow that can’t be found in any of the finest skin products.
The following 4 bullet points I found online and thought you would all find of great interest.
• Aerobic exercise builds endurance and promotes circulation by increasing the heart rate. As this occurs, blood is circulated quicker throughout the body, thereby increasing circulation and depositing nutrients to the skin cells, which helps to improve a woman’s skin.
• Both aerobic and strength training exercises help to rid the skin of potentially damaging toxins. Sweating during exercise helps to clean clogged pores. Be sure to keep a clean towel to wipe sweat away.
• Exercise has been found to increase collagen growth in some people. A main component to keeping skin looking young, collagen is the fibre that protects the skin from wrinkles and lines.
• One of the most amazing benefits of exercise is the ability to improve acne-prone skin. That’s because exercise helps to reduce stress, a major contributor to break-outs. When women are under stress, their adrenal gland produces male type hormones that in turn cause blemishes and clogged pores.
So there you have it my mother was right (don’t tell her haha). It’s interesting we all know how much exercise helps our shape and along with the body we are aware it clears the mind but improving the skin has got to be an added bonus!
