YouTube's Online Exercise has helped people get through the pandemic and be physically fit, even in the comforts of their home. Now, a study has shown that regular exercise cuts back on anxiety by 60 percent, along with other mental health problems, which people experience as they stay cooped up at home for a long time now.
Most people are reluctant or clueless to exercise, particularly because they have no workout regimen or routine available, as not all are fitness experts or have a trainer to pay. Luckily, this pandemic has the internet by its side, and people are not left clueless, as one search on YouTube would bring them to numerous influencers.
Exercise Can Help Fight Against Anxiety by 60 Percent
Daily Mail UK has reported on the researchers who have spent a massive part of their life studying mental health and its association with exercise or physical activity. For 21 years, researchers Lund University's Martina Svensson and Tomas Deierborg from the Department of Experimental Medical Science have studied anxiety disorder.
Here, the researchers have studied those who went skiing as their physical activity and those who were rarely physically active. The study, which was from the year 2000 has concluded, and wrapped up, with Svensson and Deierborg concluding that physical activity can help reduce anxiety or developing it by 60 percent.
That is a massive difference, particularly for those who do not engage in said physical activities, as it shows that it is important for people to have regular exercise mixed in their daily habits.
The study may be focused on skiing, but it can be applied to the present times, especially as the pandemic has taken a toll on mental health.
