The most important factor to remember is that exercise should be equally taxing to every part of our human organism. This is important for the harmonious development and action of every part of the wonderful human machine. God designed every nerve and muscle to be exercised, for it is the inaction of our human machinery that brings about so much suffering and disease. It is certainly true that more people rust out through inactivity than wear out from the right kind of over-exercise.

Walking is the finest exercise possible. A brisk walk in the open air will invigorate the entire system, causing a full and healthful circulation of the blood. This natural stimulation will prove a safeguard against the common cold and flu, coughs, congestion of lungs and brain, sluggishness of the liver, kidneys, lymph system and bowels, inflammation of the lungs, and many other diseases.

Another excellent form of uplifting exercise is working in the vegetable garden and cultivating flowers. This will add strength and health not only to the muscles, but to the nerves as well. God chose outdoor gardening work as an invaluable aid for Adam and Eve’s physical strength and health as well as their mental development. (See Genesis 2:8-15).

The more closely we follow God’s original plan for men and women, the more surely we will have an aid for the preservation and recovery of health.
