Where, this increases the risk of certain illnesses such as: type 2 diabetes and hypertension. (Frontera, 2006, pg. 101) This is significant, because it shows how exercise is used for a variety a reasons. While they are basically the same (to improve / maintain health), the fact of the matter is, that each person has different motivations as to why they are exercising.
A second reason why people are exercising is: to see improved cardiovascular circulation. This reduces the risks of: stroke, heart disease, and other cardiovascular problems. (Frontera, 2006, pg. 100) As it has been proven by research, that exercise keeps blood vessels "young" and it prevents the arteries from becoming clogged. At the same time, this helps to improve blood circulation, as it increases HDL cholesterol production (good cholesterol). This in turn, reduces and removes LDL (bad cholesterol) from the arteries, thereby negating the buildup of plaque, which could block them (leading to a stroke or heart attack). (Goodger, B. 2005, pg, 41). This is important, because it shows how exercise can help improve the underlying levels of health in all individuals. As result, this is biggest reason why everyone will exercise, as they want to improve / maintain this in some way.
Conclusion
Clearly, there are a wide variety of reasons as to who chooses to exercise and why. In some cases, the individual will do so because of personal choices such as: improving health, enjoyment and socialization....
At the same time, some individuals will exercise as part of their career. These distinctions are important, because they will play a part of an interconnected role, influencing the underlying motivations as to why someone will exercise. As each individual will have their own personal / career related reasons. In some cases, they could involve exercising out of necessity, where the person has no choice. Yet beyond this fact, the main motivation why most people engage in physical activity is to improve their underlying levels of health. At the same time, there are a host of different reasons as to why someone will exercise the most notable include: weight control and improved circulation. These two elements are important, because they highlight the underlying health benefits that someone will receive from exercise itself. When you put these different elements together, this shows that there are a wide variety of individuals who exercise and reasons why. This is important, because it highlights how specific individual factors will play a major role, in determining who will exercise. However, at the end of the day one of the indirect and direct reasons why everyone exercises, is because of improved health benefits. In many ways, one could argue that this is the biggest factor affecting who will choose to exercise and who will not.

Exercise Physiology The paper discusses five articles related to exercise physiology. Within these articles, a number of topics are comprised, including: exercise in extreme environments, optimizing performance in sport, gender and age as they relate to exercising, fatigue during exercise and health. These topics will be examined as per the points-of-view presented in the articles below. Icy Climb to the Sky in Summery Yosemite by Bill Becher (Source: ) This first article discusses
Heart rates in children may reach 220 or even 225 before puberty, but tend to fall to around 200 in their late teens, so the coach should not worry on finding such high rates in exercising youngsters." (Sharp, 1) This is a demonstration of the distinct physical response of the youth's body, justifying a framing of youth physical activity as separate, different and demanding its own specific scientific attention. This
Wininger and Pargman (2003) state from a study he conducted involving 282 female subjects that other factors associated with exercise enjoyment are. These variables in the study were: "satisfaction with the music used in the exercise environment, satisfaction with the exercise instructor, and salience of exercise role-identity (EIS)." In Wininger and Pargman's (2003) study, the results revealed significant positive correlations between all 3 variables and exercise enjoyment. Interestingly enough, the
Exercise and Pregnancy "How much, and how intensively, nurse, should I exercise over the course of my pregnancy?' A seemingly simple question -- and one a gynecological or obstetrical nurse must be prepared to answer, given that many newly pregnant women may feel more comfortable directing such queries to a nursing staff health care provider, rather than a physician. This may be particularly the case if the attending physician is male,

exercises improve critical thinking skills?, Cotter and Tally take a closer look at how effective the teaching of critical thinking skills actually is. They had students complete a number of different tests. The authors noted that while there was a correlation between the scores of the different tests, that these scores and the correlation did not improve over the course of the semester. They suggest that "critical thinking assignments
