The USA Gymnastics Fitness ProgramFitness - It’s Important! Our society has begun to refocus on fitness, especially in regard to healthy, active lifestyles for children. Today’s youth have replaced climbing trees, jumping rope and playing tag with video games, computers, television and texting. These sedentary activities are a major reason the fitness message is important. Children run and play from an early age, and they don’t realize what they do for fun is also exercise. Exercise is important for complete health, both physically and men-tally. Because inactive children are likely to become inactive adults, introducing exer-cise at a young age can result in long-term benefits. For example, increased physical activity in children has been linked to longer life ex-pectancy and decreased cardiovascular disease. It also helps control weight, reduce blood pressure, raise HDL (“good”) cholesterol and reduce the risk of diabetes and some forms of cancer. Physical activity also increases bone mineral density, which lowers a child’s risk of osteoporosis. Exercise has also been shown to have a beneficial effect on mental health, decreasing anxiety and depression symptoms; and increasing self-esteem and self-confidence. Moreover, it helps kids cope better with stress. Organized sports add to these bene-fits by teaching important lessons such as sharing, teamwork and conflict resolution. General corrective exercises, such as the exercises in this program, can minimize the risk of injury. Developing a good fitness foundation for young children sets the groundwork for a lifetime of fitness. Gymnastics is Fitness! |
