HOUSEHOLD CHORES BOOST ENERGY LEVELS

    


An Expert shared in a statement, the researchers found that the adults who spent more time doing odd jobs and housework chores (like cleaning, meal prep, and yard work) had greater brain volume, regardless of how much they exercised. (The greater the brain volume, the healthier and "younger" the brain!)

 Household chores may not be called 'exercise' but it all counts toward your daily physical activity. It's all good for better sleep and brain health as well as lowering the risk of cancer and cardiovascular diseases.

 Contrary to this, the many say that You can consider your daily chores as “exercise” by the simple fact that you're moving your body, burning calories, and getting your heart rate up. Even walking up and down stairs or standing while you do dishes burns more calories than sitting.

 One of the world's largest studies on physical activity has found that doing household chores can be just as effective as running or working out when it comes to cutting your risk of heart disease and extending your life.

 In an existing research suggests that housework may improve older adults' physical health, cognitive functioning, mental health, and eventually, increase life expectancy.

 Like any other physical activity, housework can tone muscles if done correctly and in the right posture.

 When you're tired, the last thing you might feel like doing is getting up and about. But exercising or physical activities such as a short walk or doing housework help more oxygen-rich blood move around your body, giving you an energy boost.

 .By turning your household chores into a workout you can increase your heart rate and work your major muscle groups. From hoovering, mopping and dusting to gardening and even cleaning the kitchen, there's hundreds of exercises you can do at home and feel the energy levels improving.

 You can burn calories when you do chores around the house or in the yard. Non-exercise activity thermogenesis, or NEAT, includes energy you burn doing anything except sleeping, eating, or exercise. House or yard work can boost your metabolism, increase energy levels and even helps to manage your weight.

 Being physically active including house hold work can improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities. Adults who sit less and do any amount of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity gain some health benefits.

 Thus house hold works too can support you by extending a better chance of gaining extra energy to be active throughout the day.
