Constipation is a common problem.Exercise may be a simple solution.Physical activity is one of the most effective ways to loosen your bowels to keep yourself regular.

Although almost any exercise can be useful in helping stool pass more easily through your intestines, light cardio is the most commonly recommended exercise for people living with chronic constipation.

Cardio exercises that get your blood pumping are probably the simplest form of physical activity to help avoid constipation. Whether it’s running, swimming, cycling, or dancing, a cardio workout will increase your breathing, boost your heart rate, and stimulate your bowels.
