Exercise Tips for Blood Type AB
Calming and relaxing exercises relieve stress and promote AB’s well-being.
Regular exercise will bring remarkable changes to your body, metabolism, and heart, and it is also considered vital for maintaining mental fitness. Exercise has a unique capacity to exhilarate, relax, provide stimulation, calm, counter depression, dissipate stress, enhance overall cognitive function, and can be especially helpful when stress has depleted your energy or ability to concentrate.
Exercise and other physical activity improve the ability to sleep, which also reduces stress. Meditation, acupuncture, massage therapy, even deep breathing produce endorphins in your body. Conventional wisdom holds that a workout of low to moderate intensity makes type AB’s feel energized and healthy.
The mental benefits of exercise have a neurochemical basis. Exercise reduces levels of the body’s stress hormones, such as adrenaline and cortisol. It also stimulates the production of endorphins, chemicals in the brain that are the body’s natural painkillers and mood elevators.
Try these exercising tips:
- Aim for 10,000 steps daily (roughly 7km).
- Vary the type of physical exercise to work on different muscle groups.
- Choose exercise activities that you enjoy.
- Try to exercise outside. Sun and fresh air, especially in a relaxing, natural environment, are energizing and strengthen the body-mind connection.
- Choose low-medium impact activities. Strenuous exercise that strains your body is not necessary for your type.
- Try integrating physical activity that strengthens the body-mind connection, which can have a profound impact on your overall well-being, as they work on the body-mind as a single entity.
