Senior sports can be a fun way for seniors to stay fit and active. What did you like to play when you were in high school? What sport or sports did you participate in?Many people think that just because they are older adults that they can’t enjoy sports like younger folks. As long as you are cleared by your doctor for physical activity, you can rediscover your favorite sport. Sure, you won’t be quite as agile or quick as you were in your youth. But, that’s not the point. There is no reason you can’t have fun being active at something you enjoyed in your past.
As long as you are physically able there aren’t too many sports that you can’t do as a senior athlete. In fact, you don’t have to think of yourself as an athlete, just think about having fun and being active. Sports can also be a way of motivating you to exercise so that you can enjoy your sport even more.
You’d be surprised at the various possibilities for you to enjoy sports again. You can investigate activities that you thought about doing but just didn’t quite get around to learning about. You can take a look at some that you might not have thought of as well as some that you can do again. You’d be surprised at the various sports that seniors are participating in well into their 80s and 90s.
Not only can you rediscover your favorite sport, but, you can have fun with friends and family. If you make it a social event it can help you stick to your daily exercise routine. You’ll more likely work out so that you can enjoy your sport even more. Don’t let your age decide what sport you play. Just make a decision to get back to your favorite sport or try a new one.
There may be some activities that you participated in when you were young. The bottom line is that as long as you are healthy enough to play, and have been cleared by your doctor, you can have fun and stay fit at the same time. You don’t’ have to play like a super star, just play to be active and have fun. Age is not a barrier to being involved as long as you love to play. You can have fun exercising with senior sports.

The world is changing rapidly, for the good and for the bad. I am sure most of us are aware of the increase in obesity in our societies and rightfully so we are all concerned. The heath professionals are concerned about the impact of obesity on the health of obese individuals and the politicians are concerned about the money spent on combating this epidemic. Nevertheless we are concerned. I am however more than concerned about the increase in obesity in our children, the question that comes to mind is who is to blame; the parents, the kids, the government? Many parents blame the government for not protecting their kids against advertisement for fast food, but then I wonder who ends up buying this food, the government, no- it’s the parents. We need to exercise more authority as parents, get your children to eat healthy- be a role model eat healthy as well, get them to exercise there are very interesting children fitness equipment available.

It’s been known for centuries that losing weight doesn’t include only a special diet. Sports has always been the most important thing losing and maintaining weight, shaping your body and most importantly keeping your body healthy and strong. In this article you’ll find out what one should do trying to get accustomed to doing sports and making it a regular habit or simply – way of life.
How many sports do I need?
First of all, if you’re not certain, consult your physician before starting working out. Most of the people should work out 3-5 times a week for 30-60 minutes. The benefit of sports is countless; therefore even couple of minutes of some physical activity makes you feel more energetic than doing nothing.
Where to start off?
Some important things you should bear in mind and include in your daily activity:
- forget the elevator-climb the stairs;
- on your lunch break, walk out for a stroll;
- make half or all the way back home on foot;
- do your housekeeping works with full range of energy and tempo;
- clean your backyard; rake the leaves into the heap etc.
As already mentioned, consult your physician before doing any sports. Start practicing sports. This is especially important if you haven’t moved or done any sports before, have any health problems, if you’re a senior or expecting a baby. Start slowly. If you haven’t done sports for years, you won’t be able to run a marathon straight away and not even in 2 weeks. Start from a simple 10 min stretch or fast walking and increase the duration and intensity step by step.
How to get accustomed to doing sports?
1. Choose the sports you like! The exercises must suit your taste and physical abilities. For example, if you have arthritis, swimming is best for you.
2. Find a partner. Unless you’re type of person who likes to be alone, doing sports with some friends is not only more enjoyable, but also gives more motives to achieve better results.
3. Avoid the routine. If you mix the trainings, they won’t get boring. There’ll be a lesser possibility to get injured, too. One day choose jogging, another day drive a bike or take a dance/aerobics class.
4. Choose a convenient time. Don’t start practicing right after you’ve eaten or when it is very hot, humid or too cold outside. If you feel stiff in the morning, work out later in the afternoon or evening. Listen to the biological rhythm of your organism.
5. Be persistent. It may take weeks or months to notice you’re losing weight. However, first positive results of your physical activity should be noticeable straight away. You should really feel more flexible and energetic in the very first weeks.
6. Don’t think “No pain, no gain”. It is natural that you should feel your muscles ache after the first practices, but you shouldn’t continue doing sports if you feel a constant pain. Consult your physician or a sports trainer for further details. Maybe you do exercises incorrectly, maybe you need a break.
7. Your exercising should be enjoyable. For example, if you jogging or riding a bike, listen to your IPod or watch TV if at home. There are ways of making it enjoyable: make a stroll in the zoo, learn to play tennis or volleyball. It won’t be sports only- you will have an aim to win, too.
