Life Lies in Sports

Why Is Sports Important?

Life lies in sports! 2 weeks with no exercise, cardiovascular function will decrease by 1.8%. Studies found that after 14 days with no exercise, the body’s cardiovascular function will decline by 1.8%, cardiopulmonary function will decline, and waist circumference will increase. But 14 days after resuming normal activities, the blood vessel function will obviously improve.

Stop exercise for 10 days, the brain will be different. A study published in the Frontier of Aging Neuroscience found that if the elderly who are normally in good health stop exercising for only about 10 days, the blood flow of the important areas in the brain responsible for thinking, learning and memory, such as the hippopotamus, will decrease significantly.

Do not exercise for 2 weeks at all, people’s muscle strength will age 40 years. According to a study published in the Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, researchers from the University of Copenhagen in Denmark tied to keep one leg of the volunteers fixed for two weeks, and young people’s leg muscles reduce by an average of 485 grams and old people’s leg muscles reduce by an average of 250 grams.

What’s the Difference between People Who Exercise and Those Who Don’t?

A large-scale research paper published by the world authoritative journal – Journal of the American Medical Association • Internal Medicine Volume, through the big data analysis of 1.44 million people in the United States and Europe, found that active exercise may reduce the risk of 13 kinds of potential cancer, such as liver cancer, kidney cancer and breast cancer. Meanwhile, people who are overweight, obese and have a history of smoking can benefit from physical activity. The paper studied 26 cancers and found that exercise can significantly reduce the incidence of 13 of them.

Physical exercise also helps to prevent and treat osteoporosis, reduce colds, improve depression, lower blood pressure, relieve chronic pain, fight chronic fatigue syndrome, relieve constipation, lower blood sugar, fight addiction, and prevent stroke.
