When you are doing physical activity and becoming physically fit, you will see benefits in the following categories: arms, legs, and brain. physical, mental/emotional, and social. phone use, tv use, and cooking.

the more fit you are, the faster the recovery. your heart rate drops most sharply in the first minute after you stop exercising; it should then fall about 20 beats a minute—a drop of less than 12 beats a minute is considered abnormal. this “recovery heart rate” is measured as part of an exercise stress test.
