The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to exercise:

Exercise any bodily activity that enhances or logs physical fitness and overall health and wellness.

Frequent and regular physical exercise boosts the immune system, and helps prevent the "diseases of affluence" such as heart disease, cardiovascular disease, Type 2 diabetes and obesity.[1][2]
