Type: article
Abstract: Physical Exercise is a movement of the body performed by muscles in a planned, structured, and repetitive manner, using energy in the process, with the goal of maintaining physical fitness. The benefits of physical exercise for the body include improving muscle strength. Muscle strength is the increased ability of muscles to perform physical activities. Some literature also mentions that muscle strength can decrease as a result of physical exercise. After performing physical exercise, muscle capability will decline and require time for recovery to regain optimal function. Curcumin is a compound found in turmeric plants. Turmeric itself has various benefits, such as acting as an anti-inflammatory by inhibiting molecules involved in the inflammatory process. Additionally, turmeric has benefits as an antioxidant by inhibiting lipid peroxidation in studies using experimental animals.
