Sports programmes are very popular on television nowadays. Some people argue that those programmes are the reasons for poor health of many young people as the prefer to watch sports rather than partake in them. Do you agree or disagree with this view ?
It is sometimes argued that watching
sports
programmes
will result in less physical activity and health issues in the young generation. While
watching long hours
of TV
shows is considered to be a possible threat, I do not agree with the idea that watching sport
shows will negatively affect young people
's lives.
Health organization have always been worried about long hours
of watching TV
and problems which come with it. Firstly
, they argue that due to
the excitement which sport
may have, people
tend to spend more time watching these shows or matches. For instance
, A football game alongside analysis shows lasts more than three hours
. Secondly
, people
tend to eat and drink unhealthily during programmes
and they are not aware of how many calories they get by eating too many snacks and drinks. Finally
, spending long hours
in front of a TV
can be a dangerous habit that leads the youth towards laziness and results in a sedentary lifestyle with no physical activity.
On the other hand
, watching sports
programmes
is considered to motivate young folk to get active. That is
, a wide range of people
who are into sports
are tempted to follow their dreams of becoming even pros in their desired field of sport
. Different surveys have shown that watching sport
on TV
sparked the motivation of people
who are playing and working out regularly. For instance
, I as a gymaholic started lifting weights and going to the gym after watching bodybuilding competitions and I am still eagerly following those shows.
In conclusion, watching different programmes
including sports
on TV
may exacerbate the prevalent sedentary lifestyle in some cases, but overally the followers of sports
shows are motivated to stay active by watching those shows.Submitted by sajad.bazdar.2012 on
