Is Exercise the Best Skincare Routine?
We know that the benefits of exercise reach far and wide. But just how far and how wide? Regular exercise has been proven to have positive effects on the health and appearance of skin. At MARGO'S, your workout is doing more for you thank you might think.
Increase blood flow
When you exercise, your heart rate increases. This causes blood vessels to dilate and deliver more oxygen and nutrients to your skin cells. This increased blood flow helps remove waste products, such as free radicals from your skin cells, keeping your skin looking healthy and radiant.
Reduce inflammation
Chronic inflammation in the body can lead to a variety of health problems. This can include skin issues like acne, psoriasis, and eczema. Low-Impact exercise can reduce inflammation in the body by decreasing levels of pro-inflammatory markers such as cytokines. This can lead to a reduction in skin inflammation and a clearer complexion.
Promote healthy hormone levels
Hormonal imbalances can wreak havoc on your skin. Thus leading to issues such as acne and unwanted hair growth. Regular exercise can help regulate hormone levels in the body. Exercise has also been shown to increase levels of growth hormone. GH helps to stimulate collagen production and keep your skin looking youthful. MARGO’S classes have been specifically designed to amplify this process.
If you’re ready to incorporate Low-Impact exercise into your skincare routine-here’s how:
Add in MARGO’S signature CARDIO or STEP Aerobics class to help increase blood flow to the skin.
Utilize resistance and bodyweight training in SCULPT to promote balanced hormone levels
Take STRETCH to reduce stress, which can contribute to skin issues such as acne and flush the lymphatic system to remove waste from skin cells.
As with any new routine, it’s important to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity and duration over time. You should also speak with your doctor before starting any new exercise program, especially if you have any underlying medical conditions.
Regular exercise can provide a range of benefits for your skin health, from increased blood flow to reduced inflammation and balanced hormones. If you’re looking to amp up your skincare, maybe it’s time to get moving.
