IF you missed the Gym: Laugh Aloud!
hey i just came over this
While it is normally only considered cliché that "laughter is the best medicine," specific medical theories attribute improved health, increased life expectancy, and overall improved well-being, to laughter.
It has been estimated by scientists that laughing 100 times equals the same physical exertion as a 10 minute workout on a rowing machine or 15 minutes on a stationary exercise bike. Laughing works out the diaphragm, abdominal, respiratory, facial, leg, and back muscles
What more is that a study in Japan shows that laughter lowers blood sugar after a meal!
All we have to do if we happen to miss the Gym is that we should Laugh!!!
