and Your Complexion |

We
all know that exercise is good for us. It helps us
stay trim, tones our muscles and boosts our energy.
But did you know that working out can actually help
give you the complexion you’ve always wanted?
It’s true--regular exercise nourishes the skin all
over the body with fresh blood, nutrients and oxygen.
At the same time, the increased blood flow and
circulation that come with working out helps to draw
toxins out of the body, improving the condition of all
your vital organs, the epidermis included.
Many people think that sweat can trigger acne
flare-ups. In fact, sweating is great for congested
skin--it promotes the flushing of impurities from the
epidermal layer and cleans out the pores. Moreover,
vigorous exercise actually corrects the hormonal
imbalances that can trigger blemishes, thus reducing
the likelihood of outbreaks. How? Any physical routine
that you enjoy--yoga, running, biking, spinning,
pilates, boxing, etc.--lessens the stress you
encounter on a daily basis, helping to prevent
stress-related acne.
Exercise may not be a miracle cure-all--you may still
experience breakouts from time to time--but your acne
will almost certainly be less severe and of a shorter
duration.
Exercise is also wonderful for other skin conditions
that may not have to do with acne at all. Are you
worried about your skin losing its elasticity or
becoming thinner and less resilient? This is a common
problem for many of us as we age. As we grow older we
start to lose collagen, making us look gaunt or tired.
Physical activity can actually promote the growth of
collagen in your skin cells, plumping up your facial
skin and making you look younger and more vibrant.
And if you’re worried about wrinkles, consider this:
the relaxation that comes after a vigorous bout of
exercise has the effect of making your muscles, facial
muscles included, soften up. That means your lines
will appear less pronounced, contributing to the
youthful look you are trying to cultivate.
A smaller waist, better muscle tone, softer skin,
fewer blemishes and an overall younger and fresher
look? There’s really not any reason not to exercise
on a regular basis!
