8. Try to extend your life expectancy with a regular workout routine.
No one is immortal, but it stands to reason that everyone is hoping to live as long of a life as possible. Committing yourself to a healthy lifestyle is mostly about getting back more time in your life. If you want to see the health benefits of regular exercise, a little bit can go a long way to helping you live longer. Regular moderate activities like brisk walking can increase life expectancy by at least several years.

Studies have shown that 150 minutes of exercise or more each week can add about seven years in life expectancy over those who do not participate in regular moderate exercise. These same findings were also valid for those who were considered overweight or obese. Their results also proved about seven years in additional lifespan amounts. Any exercise they added to their schedule could help them live longer. That proves that it does not matter when you get started. There is no better time than the present to make a change that could end up not only saving your life but making sure that you are around long enough to enjoy it.
