Many working people get little or no exercise either during the working day or in their free time, and have health problems as a result. Why do many working people not get enough exercise? What can be done about this problem?

It has been a new norm that many

 during workdays and even weekends, and it causes serious issues physical and mental to their health. While there are plenty of reasons associated with the problem, I would argue that individuals and companies can certainly take steps to address the issues.

 as they needed for many reasons.

Secondly
, it is sometimes difficult to maintain the strong motivation of doing regular workouts.
For example
, I found myself lying on the sofa after a long working day and refusing to get up because watching Netflix on TV was way more attractive than sweating in the gym.
Finally
,
people
 often fail to realize the number of effort required to be good at sports,

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
