Helps in making Abs Another advantage of laughter is that it helps strengthen your abdominal muscles. Your stomach muscles stretch and contract when you laugh, much like when you train your abs on purpose. The muscles you aren't using to laugh are then given a chance to unwind. Make working out your abs more fun by including humour in them.

Cardio workout Laughter is an excellent cardiac workout, especially for people who are unable to engage in other forms of exercise because of an injury or illness. It increases heart rate and burns about as many calories per hour as slow to moderate walking. Therefore, laugh at yourself healthily.
