Why is it important to exercise safely?

Exercise is meant to help our bodies stay injury free & healthy

Exercise can help improve your quality of life, but if executed in bad form, may lead to injuries, which defeats the purpose of increasing physical activity in the first place. If there is pain when you exercise(or do just about any activity), seek advice from a doctor to ensure that any underlying problems are cleared. This helps you, by being able to exercise for longer-term as it is a lifestyle rather than something done only in leisure time. Exercise can help many people, but only when done right. More than not, the rise of sports injuries from exercise or just physical activity that involves jumping, rotating, & stop-start, why people are even getting injured doing no physical activity! So it's important to find a fitness professional who teaches good exercise example on muscles that needs to be worked on.
