The best type of exercise for improving health and fitness is aerobic exercise, such as walking, running, swimming, cycling, or dancing. Strength training can also be beneficial, but it should not be done in isolation from an overall fitness program. Aerobic exercise helps to improve your heart health and increases your endurance, while strength training builds muscle mass and improves bone density. Additionally, flexibility exercises like yoga and stretching can help to reduce the risk of injury and increase your range of motion.
