What Happens When You Don't Use Your Body??

All Sit And No Work Makes Jack/Jackie A Dull/obese Boy/girl!

Do you ever think that what actually happens to your health and body when you stop exercising? Here is a good timeline that explains how significantly your body can alter each month or week when you stop workout.


1 Week - 1 Month

Metabolism - Almost straight away your metabolism
starts to slow down from inactivity and your muscles
start to reduce in size. If you do not burn off the food
that you consume it will gradually start to store as fat
within the body.


1 Month

Endurance - Aerobic conditioning is thought to drop
quickly and your endurance levels are considered to
slow after just a few weeks.


1 to 3 months

Muscular strength - Studies have shown that you're
likely to return to a pre-exercise level after only a 4-12 week break.


3-6 months

Weight gain - At this stage weight gain is particularly
apparent with every 3500 calories that are not burnt
converting into adding around a pound in weight. If
your daily workout burned around 500 calories and
your diet remained the same, then after 3 to six
months you are likely to gain around 12 to 24 pounds in weight.


6 to 9 months

Blood pressure - With an increase in weight and a
reduction in cardiovascular activity, you are at risk of
an increase in blood pressure and more at risk of
serious diseases such as diabetes type 2 and heart
diseases.


9 - 12 months

Depression - Your mental health can suffer as a lack
of exercise or workout can affect your self esteem
and cause social isolation. You also will be lacking in
the production of serotonin and endorphins
necessary to help elevate your mood which aid to
deter you from depression.


Year onwards

Bones and strength - As we age and over time we
need to work harder to maintain our body fitness, if
muscle groups are not continuously developed than
they will weaken. Also in the absence of weight
bearing activity the bones are more susceptible to
becoming brittle and you will be more at risk of
osteoporosis.
