An authoritative medical magazine once published a study on sports, and the best sport is swing ball games! ! !

In this study involving 1.2 million people, 75 kinds of sports were identified. For the convenience of statistics, they divided these sports into eight categories: team sports, cycling, aerobic or gymnastics, running or jogging, recreational sports or others, winter sports or swimming pools, walking and others. This paper analyzes the influence of different sports on mental and physical health and draws this conclusion.

Not only found the best exercise, but also paid attention to the time of each exercise. The longer the exercise time, the better. The best duration is-between 45-60 minutes!

In terms of the length of time, the optimal duration of each exercise is between 45 and 60 minutes. Less than 45 minutes will weaken the effect, while more than 60 minutes will not only have no higher benefits, but also easily produce negative effects.

In terms of frequency, 3-5 days a week, once a day has the highest income. Of all sports, only the frequency of walking can be slightly higher, up to 6 times a week.

Why swing is the best exercise?
