Answer to Question 1

Answer: Design a daily program utilizing activities that use large muscle groups (activities such as walking, cycling, resistance training, etc.) that continue for at least 20 minutes. To stay with the program, enlist a friend to workout with you, plan exercise into your schedule, or consider taking a structured fitness class. Vary your activity and choose something fun.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Stress hormones are released (cortisol, adrenaline) that increase heart rate and blood pressure. The pupils of the eye dilate. Digestion slows as blood diverts to the muscles. The clotting factor in the blood increases. The liver releases glucose, which will be used for energy.
