Everyone knows that exercise is good for the body, but most people in Hong Kong, especially women and friends who have entered middle age, are typical city dwellers who sleep until 10 o'clock on holidays. Maybe I had breakfast for lunch, rented a movie set to take home, and after watching it it was time for dinner, so I spent Sunday; the more active things were just shopping and watching movies. If you are engaged in clerical work on a daily basis and do not make good use of your holidays and do not exercise enough, your body's functions will deteriorate faster and it will easily lead to chronic diseases.
