Exercising

Although some people think exercising not necessary to do, in fact, exercising has positive benefits for human’s health. For example, research study in USA showed that taking brisk walk in 30 minutes can help build strong muscles , joints, and bones. Moreover two hours a week of moderate exercise like cycling, playing tennis, or running may reduce the risk of getting cancer and diabetes by 60 percent. Not only exercising revive our body in a fit condition, but also it causes the body to release endorphins which are chemicals that created happy and peaceful feeling on us. In addition, people who exercising routinely have a good self esteem. According to Peter Kokkinos, director of the exercise testing and research lab in the cardiology department of the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Washington, D.C “As you increase your ability to exercise-increase your fitness-you are decreasing in a step-wise fashion the risk of death”( http://health.msn.com/fitness/mens-fitness/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100188759). The evidences above suggest that exercising give tremendous effects both for our physical and mental too.

Very good! Well supported and well structured.

Be careful of expressions like "tremendous", but perhaps it wasn't completely uncalled for in this case.
