This is an important topic, because everybody should exercise.
Exercising or working out is necessary for good health.
Let's talk about some different types of exercise.
One popular type of exercise.
I'm a terrible runner because I get really tired when I run, but I want to improve my running.
Some people like running short distances, and some people like running long distances.
I'm pretty fast when I run short.
short distances, but I'm slow when I run long distances.
Some people prefer running outside and other people run on the treadmill.
A treadmill is a machine for running.
I don't like running on the treadmill.
I prefer running outside in nature.
Do you prefer running outside or on the treadmill?
Okay, another popular type of exercise is weightlifting.
People lift weights to build muscle and get stronger.
Most people go to the gym to lift weights.
In the past, I went to the gym often to work out.
I lifted weights every week at the gym, but now I don't go to the gym.
I have some weights at home, so I can lift weights here, but I don't have a lot of equipment.
So, I can't do many exercises.
Some have their own mini gym in their garage.
Weightlifting is hard because weights are heavy.
If you're not strong, you can't lift a lot of weight.
But, if you start lifting lifting weight, weights, you can get stronger.
Alright, another popular type of exercise is playing sports.
Playing sports is good exercise and it's fun.
Some people don't need to run or lift weights because they already play sports.
When I was young, I played many sports.
Sometimes I played sports with my friends and other times I played by myself.
What's your favorite sport?
Another popular type of exercise is hiking.
This is one of my favorite activities.
Hiking is a great way to exercise because you don't need any equipment.
Also, you can enjoy nature when you hike.
If live in a rural area, you probably have many places to hike.
If you live in a big city, it's harder to find places to hike.
I love hiking in the mountains, the forests, the deserts, and in the hills.
In the US, hiking is a very popular activity.
People hiking with their friends, and sometimes, with their dogs.
In other countries, hiking isn't so popular.
When I have the chance, I try to find new places to go hiking.
Okay, one more type of exercise is walking.
This is the simplest form of exercise.
I try to walk every day if I can because I really like walking.
So overall there are many different types of exercise.
You should try to exercise every day if you can.
Alright, that's all for today.
