mocomi.com/ presents: Exercise regularly!
Exercise is very important to stay active. But it does not have to be only at gym class. It can be something fun too. Playing is not just fun but also keeps you physically active.
Benefits of Exercise -
There are a lot of benefits from regular exercise. Kids who are active will:
have stronger muscles and bones
be less likely to become overweight
decrease the risk of developing type 2 diabetes
lower blood pressure and blood cholesterol levels
have a better outlook on life
Besides enjoying the health benefits of regular exercise, kids who are physically fit sleep better. They're also better able to handle physical and emotional challenges - from running to catch a bus to studying for a test.
The Three Elements of Fitness -
The three elements of fitness in action when kids play in the playground are:
1. Endurance: When a child is chasing or being chased by another child at play.
2. Strength: When a child crosses a monkey bar.
3. Flexibility: Bending down to tie their shoes.
Regular aerobic activity helps a child to build good endurance levels. Aerobic exercise causes the heart to beat faster and a person breathes harder. Regular aerobic activity strengthens the heart and improves the body's ability to deliver oxygen to all its cells.
Following are some fun aerobic activities:
basketball
bicycling
ice skating
soccer
swimming
tennis
walking
jogging
running
Improving strength doesn't have to be only from only lifting weights instead, kids can do push-ups, stomach crunches, pull-ups, and other exercises to help tone and strengthen muscles. They also improve their strength when they climb, do a handstand, or wrestle.
Stretching exercises helps a child improve flexibility, allowing muscles and joints to bend and move easily through their full range of motion. Simplest activities like reaching out for a toy or practicing a split or doing a cartwheel are fun ways to stretch and build one’s flexibility.
