Fitness World Isn’t Concerned About Your Health, Researcher Says

Today, we don’t need it, but the movement persists in our DNA, just as saving energy does, and our brain knows it. The brain is much healthier when the body moves – in practice, there is no separation between body and mind – but it also wants to save energy when it perceives it as unnecessary. Fábio Dominski highlights that the ease of having everything at hand with minimal effort is increasing, leading to a reduction in daily movements, such as walking and climbing stairs. Therefore, organized and repetitive physical exercise is a possible way to increase levels of body movement, with benefits that go beyond health and aesthetics. According to Dominski, the problem is that currently the marketing in the fitness industry is not very appealing.
