Sports
in itself is a remedy to many physical and mental stresses. Youngsters tend to be more involved in
sports
than adults. Many stop physical
exercise
due to
work-life imbalance
as well as
a lack of amenities and clubs for them to participate in.
However
, encouraging them to manage work and free time better,
together with
the higher authorities providing better amenities will allow more adults to take part.
On the one hand , arise many causes that deter grown-ups from exercising.
Firstly
, as you get older , you acquire many responsibilities.
For example
, working a full-time job ,
along with
spending time with children and prioritising other social events takes up a lot of the hours of the day.
Consequently
,
this
only leaves enough hours behind for sleeping.
Therefore
, people prioritise their basic necessities over
exercise
as they feel it is just an accessory which is time-consuming.
Moreover
, for younger kids, Physical
exercise
in the form of
sports
, athletics and swimming is mandatory at school as it is a part of the curriculum and optional in after-school clubs.
On the contrary
, these activities are not mandatory for grown-ups.
For example
, nowadays, older people use going to the gym as the only form of
exercise
.
As a result
,
this
may become repetitive and they may get bored.
In spite of there being multiple causes to cater to, many solutions are provided for these causes.
To begin
with , trying to maintain a family, job and social life can be time-consuming,
however
, some hours at work should be relieved so that they can be spent on
exercise
.
For instance
, in Hong Kong, many offices now keep a workout room that people can go and utilise in their beak and lunch times.
Hence
this
allows a break from a sedentary lifestyle in the office and allows the break to be able to work out.
Similarly
, governments should provide more facilities in communities that are
dedicated to the adult age group. To illustrate ,
sports
clubs allowing for different types of games at various times of the day could be put into place.
As a consequence
, more of the public will have attractive opportunities to value.
To conclude
,
although
there are undeniably many difficulties with exercising, we must understand that every cause has a solution.
Thus
, with the aid of government changes
as well as
some self-determination, we can help to overcome these obstacles.
