Re: The Health Benefits of Playing Sports??
Playing sports offers children more than just physical benefits. Sports typically help kids academically and socially as well. The benefits are the same whether or not your child actually excels at the sport. Although if they are really good they will probably want to continue playing when they are older. If your child isn't good enough to play competitively on a school team try signing them up for a city league or encourage them to just go shoot some hoops with their friends or church group. Read on for 5 ways playing sports and can benefit your child.
1. Playing sports is fun. It gives your child something to do and a group to belong to. They have a group of friends that has the same goals and interests.
2. Research has found that kids that play sports, especially girls, are more likely to have a positive body image and higher self-esteem. They also are less likely to be overweight.
3. Kids involved in sports are less likely to take drugs or smoke because they realize the impact that these destructive activities can have upon their performance. Girls who play sports are also less likely to become pregnant.
4. Physical activities are a good way to relieve stress and reduce depression.
5. Sports help kids develop discipline. They learn to set goals and then work to achieve those goals. They learn that by working hard they can accomplish the things that they want to in their lives.

Hi 1. When taking advantage of the benefits of sports, you exert yourself through increased physical activities such as stretching, running and jumping. You constructively use your energy when you play sports. One of the benefits of sports is that you get an effective full body workout. 2. The benefits of sports especially apply to children. Individuals who have played sports from an early age have stronger bones, stronger muscles and overall toned bodies. 3. Sports also improve your math skills, fostering team spirit and aiding in the development of valuable leadership qualities. Children also learn how to strategize to come up with the best ways to score and win. Studies show that children who participate in sports do better academically as well as with school activities. 4. Playing sports generates happy molecules within your body that contribute to your mental well-being. The positive energy that is generated when you participate in sports is just one of the benefits of sports. 5. A fantastic way to get the exercise that your body needs to stay healthy is through sports. Participating in sports reduces the chances of blood cholesterol and lowers blood sugar levels. Taking advantage of the benefits of sports reduces the risk of hypertension as well as other disorders related to stress. 6. Studies have found that people who participate in sports on a regular basis are better at coping with the daily stress in their lives. Playing sports also reduces the chances of developing psychological disorders, such as anxiety and depression.
