If you want to manage stress, build resilience, or feel more energized, regular physical activity is one of the most effective tools you can use. Exercise reduces stress, relaxes the body, improves circulation, and helps steady the nervous system.
Feeling strong and healthy also changes how you move through the world. When your body feels capable, your confidence rises. When you’re sick, injured, or low on strength, everything feels harder. Because we evolved to survive in challenging environments, physical capability naturally boosts our readiness to face stress and obstacles.
For beginners, three workouts a week is a great starting point. Aim for about 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of strength training each session. As you get stronger, you can switch to split routines that focus on different muscle groups. Some people eventually enjoy going four or five days a week, but three solid sessions are plenty for most.
