I have been always had to battle the question how come you
are so thin or why are you so thin?
All I say is I have been lucky to
have inherited my parents’ genes who were also thin in their younger days. My
father played a sport and probably and that explains my interest in sports and
they have always pushed me to be on my toes and stay fit. I get very restless
if I am not fit or do not feel fit.
Sports, makes sure that you are active, mentally and
physically, even if you take a break for some time. If you were played a sport
in your life and discontinued playing the sport because for your job, studies,
family or any other reason and as a result put on weight, don’t worry, you just
need to kick start your engine and your body will accelerate faster than others
and make you lose on that stubborn fat, as your cells have the memory of being
active. It’s never too late to start again.
Sports when merely started as an extracurricular activity in
school and college gives you a break from your studies. Eventually, it
will help us as a kid to be fit and healthy. I can say this out of my own
personal experience. I have been a sportsperson right from my childhood and
loved playing any game that I was offered.
Sports have changed the way I look at life and deal with it.
I count each situation of my life as a match in the game of life. Just because,
I scored less in exams or did not get a promotion it never stopped me from
fighting back and winning it with a plus point next time.
Listing down some bonus points, because of Sports/ Physical
Activity being a part of life:
- It teaches you to be patient, have a fighting spirit, and never settle for less in life.
- Even studies show that, children who have been into sports or are blessed with super active genes are always a quick learner, are very social with people, perform better at all the given tasks, they are more attentive in class and their grasping powers are better.
- Sports at an early age helps in life-long fitness habits.
- Earlier it was believed that any type of physical exertion can make a child feel more tired and thus less attention towards studies, which is now seen to be reversed. Where in the kids are more intellectual and perform better as compared to the sedentary kids.
- Also looking at the growing occurrence of Teenage Obesity, Sports can again be a great advantage.
- Any sport or activity will give them a dash of endorphins, thus reducing any kind of stress.
Sports do not help kids alone but, it has a similar effect
on adults too. Adults who play a sport perform better at work, have a good
career graph, they are better in dealing with emotional issues, more energy
over the day, lesser health issues and so on.
Don’t sit back and say I am old, bring the kid out of you
and play a sport and encourage your child to play too!
