SKIN HEALTH AND WORKING OUT-IS THERE A CONNECTION?

I have always said that healthy skin and exercise are two sides of the same coin

Therefore, there is definitely a connection between the skin and working out. An unhealthy lifestyle and lack of exercise actually reflects on the skin, making it dull and lifeless. Beautiful skin has a vitality that comes from working out, as well as from sheer good health and fitness. For flawless, healthy skin, fitness and working out must be on top of your list. Fitness also equips us to deal with stress and that, in turn, keeps the skin healthy and free from problems.

Indeed, regular exercise and workouts can affect your skin in some good and not-so-good ways. Working out releases “feel good” hormones, called endorphins, which positively impact your self-esteem and overall mood. Endorphins also help to relieve pain, reduce stress and improve your sense of well-being. This can also work wonders for the skin. However, not working out and stress can lead to various skin problems, like skin flare ups, eruptions and acne conditions.
