Features: Health exercises not only make the body stronger but also increase muscle mass, making it harder to gain weight. Since the amount of muscle is proportional to the calories burned, even when sleeping, muscles continuously consume calories. For example: Divide people into two groups—one with more muscle mass and the other with less. Give them the same food and make them do the same exercise. The group with more muscle mass burns more calories, so they are less prone to gaining weight. For middle-aged and elderly people, health exercises can be said to be beneficial in every way. In this book, we especially introduce health exercises that even the elderly and those without exercise habits can safely perform! To stay away from aging and to lead a more fulfilling life, please incorporate health exercises into your daily routine and make them an indispensable part of your life!
