The benefits of sport

First, sport satisfies a lot of social needs and helps keeping a healthy mind.

Children and parents can share the same passion and play together, which tightens family bonds. Sport also make new people meet and eventually become friends.

It teaches how to develop teamwork and communication skills to solve problems, which can help to to face some problems and take important decisions.

Sport is an excellent means to let go of stress when you feel under pressure as exercise makes you forget everything for a while and makes you feel much better afterwards. It can also boost your confidence and your self-esteem when you have reached your goals.

Then, as far as health is concerned, sport plays an important role which must not be neglected.

Practicing a regular activity requires time and energy. Consequently, it prevents people from putting on too much weight, and so it prevents the cardiovascular problems that go along with obesity. Sport strengthens the muscles, but also the rest of your body like the bones. It reduces the risks of disease (hypertension, diabetes, heart attack, etc.).

Sport gives more energy and endurance so you can do much more things in a day. Moreover, people who practice a physical activity usually take healthy decisions and avoid eating unhealthy food (with too much fat, sugar or salt in it), drinking alcohol or smoking, because they do not want their efforts to be in vain.

Sport is rewarding and exciting, especially when you see that your efforts makes you change.
