Many working people get little or no exercise during the working day or at their free time, resulting in health problems Why do many working people not get enough exercise What can be done about this problem

Exercising regularly is beneficial in ensuring good health and physical fitness,

however

, lots of

workers

exercise too little or not at all during the week or off

work

periods, causing health challenges for them. In

this

essay, we will highlight why

this

trend is common and proffer possible solutions to mitigate

this

. Most

workers

just do not have

time

enough to spare for physical activities as their schedule during

work

hours and beyond is really filled, making it almost impossible for them to allocate

time

to

work

out.

For instance

, Recent research by students from the Lagos

state

university on the daily routine of an average employed resident in the

state

shows that they spend, on average, seven hours to and from their workplace to their home. Add

this

to the eight hours at

work

and

time

needed for domestic chores, it becomes obvious why they indulge very little in workouts. To

further

illustrate, an average worker in Lagos

state

leaves the office by 4:00am to arrive at

work

just before 8am and leaves the office by 4:00pm to arrive home by 10:00pm

Secondly

, some

workers

do not see the importance of exercising

thus

they are reluctant to dedicate their

time

to it.

For example

, The research by students from Lagos

state

university

also

shows that residents are still able to create

time

to relax at bars, beaches and clubs despite the tightness of their schedules.

Furthermore

, To solve

this

problem,

workers

should be educated and constantly reminded of the benefits of regular exercise. The government can make policies geared at motivating and compelling citizens to participate in physical training. In conclusion, the health benefits of frequent physical training are enormous and

workers

should be motivated to participate more.
