Physical exercise is of tremendous value in coping with stress, using up excess energy, burning off the potentially toxic noradrenalin, and leaving you feeling calmer and more in control.
The general sense of well-being experienced after taking exercise follows the increase in circulation, heart activity, breathing and general metabolic rate.
Regular exercise keeps the joints supple and the muscles relaxed, dispelling the stiffness and rigidity which are often the after-effect of the stress of everyday living.
Exercising also leaves you mentally as well as physically stronger, and more resilient and able to cope. It's significant that the more exercise you take, the less you will experience mental fatigue, which is very common in those suffering from stress.
