Some people believe that adults get motivated to exercise and play sports because of the major sports events such as the olympic games and the football worldcup. Others say that there are many ways apart from TV to encourage them to exercise. Discuss both views and give your opinion

It is considered by some

people

that broadcasting the major

sports

events

,

such

as Olympic games and the football world cup encourages adults to indulge themselves in

sports

and

exercise

.

However

, other

people

think that there are better ways to fulfil

this

purpose. I am of the opinion that apart from TV, the focus should be turned to the other methods of motivation. On the one hand, it is thought by some that these huge

sports

events

serve the purpose of motivating adults to

exercise

more often because of the concept of idealisation.

verbal teachings. The concepts learned from images or videos are far clear and concise. To illustrate

this

, giving lectures to someone about

seems less interesting than providing them with some exciting clips of the major

sports

events

.

On the other hand

, other

people

consider that the other methods of motivation for

exercise

are better than the above-mentioned ways and I agree.

Firstly

, watching these mega-

events

on the television is not considered healthy, because doing so, changes the sport from an outdoor to an indoor activity,

hence

promoting a sedentary lifestyle, and resulting in an increased risk of a number of serious issues,

for example

, obesity, heart attacks and strokes etc.

Secondly

, teenagers start strenuous exercises under the influence of these sportsmen, which could be detrimental, if done without supervision. Nowadays, good fitness trainers are available for guidance regarding

this

important issue. To illustrate the significance of

this

point, these fitness trainers should be hired, in order to teach the youngsters about keeping balance in their diet and

exercise

regimens. In conclusion, while these

sports

events

are exciting, in my opinion, spending time in front of the television for motivation purposes regarding

exercise

, is not a wise decision and the other more healthy ways should be considered to fulfil

this

requirement.
