Exercise to improve one's health

I find running the mile daily under 12 minutes as good exercise to start of with. However it is advisable to progress gradually. Listen to your body and know your limits while exercising. Try to keep a good balance - not doing too much or too little. Warm up with some light stretching and light physical activity before doing any physical exercise. Slow down and do less when injured or not feeling well. Try to improve your running time and also increase the distance of your runs to around 2 to 3 miles. This will help you to improve your stamina and keep fit. 

Update 22nd April 2013 :- If you want to stay slim and trim, running the mile under 12 minutes may not be enough so this article has been updated.. I have put on quite a bit of weight in the last few years and was able to lose  almost 35 pounds in the last few months. Will write about this soon.
