Physical activity is considered beneficial for people of all ages, hence it is advised that everyone should do some physical activity. Recently, UK Biobank's research on 30 thousand people has found that physical activity done between 6 pm and midnight improves the health of obese people. People who were active in the evening had the lowest risk of premature death and death from heart disease.

Recent research has proved that a small activity of three minutes can provide more benefits than the total daily physical activity of people. According to a report by Bristol Live, exercise expert and owner of Exercsi, Gavin Cowper, has shared three ways in which people can improve their health with just 3 minutes of exercise.
