A groundbreaking scientific study, published on July 28, 2025, reveals shocking results regarding the impact of physical activity on the human body. Experts, who analyzed data from a representative sample of 4,400 Americans, establish a categorical fact: regular workouts can slow down aging processes.

The key discovery lies in the duration of weekly physical activity. It has been proven that 75 minutes of moderate activity per week lead to remarkable cellular transformations. Specifically, participants showed telomere elongation - a biological indicator that can reduce the body's age by up to 12 years.

Specialists recommend a gradual approach for beginners - about 10 minutes of daily jogging. Alternative options include high-intensity interval training (HIIT), cycling, or combined exercises such as walking and running, known as "jeffing".
