Consistent Exercise

Meaning

Consistent exercise is defined clinically as the regular, sustained engagement in structured physical activity over extended periods, adhering to a frequency, intensity, type, and time (FITT) principle appropriate for an individual’s physiological state. This is not merely sporadic movement but a deliberate integration of physical stress and recovery into the weekly routine, forming a cornerstone of preventative and therapeutic health strategies. Maintaining this regularity is paramount for eliciting sustained adaptive responses within the endocrine and metabolic systems. The adherence component distinguishes it from transient fitness attempts, underscoring its role in long-term health and hormonal stability.
