Exercise is good for you … but chances are you have no idea how good it actually is. If exercise were a pill, let’s just say it would easily become the best-selling drug in the world because it prevents disease, slows aging, boosts your mental health and makes for a more attractive physique.

Plus, unlike most medications, its only ‘side effects’ are good ones, like better sleep and sex, and exercise is a tool that virtually everyone — young or old, in shape or not — can harness to make their life, and their health, better.

Exercise can take on many forms, of course. You can join a gym, get a personal trainer, or pop in an exercise DVD at home (some excellent workouts can even be done in only four minutes!).
