How to protect yourself from injury: exercise wisely

With the onset of summer, the time has come for a wide variety of sports games, in which all family members will take part with pleasure. Whether it’s a family cycling marathon, playing badminton, running a ball or going on a real hike – everyone chooses a useful entertainment that they like. But do not forget about the risks and possible injuries, which, unfortunately, are inevitable. However, you can take care of your safety and the health of your loved ones in advance.

Of course, you should not chase records, see your child as a future Olympic champion, a sports star and harass him with hard training. To begin with, you can start with morning exercises, in which the whole family, young and old, participates. Dad then, in the course of joining sports, should remember about the dumbbells lying around on the balcony, and mom – get a hoop or arm herself with a rope. We can assure you that a good example is contagious! We have collected the most popular and very healthy sports games, and also figured out how to ensure the safety of yourself and your children.

Sports, if you want to achieve benefits, should be carried out gradually, incrementally. It is always necessary to take into account the characteristics of the organism of children: and it will not hurt adults sometimes to weigh their real capabilities. Badminton is considered almost ideal because it strengthens the muscles in the arms and legs. Chasing a falling shuttlecock around the site, it turns out, you can improve breathing and develop an eye (moreover, both for children and adults). According to some doctors, the child’s handwriting even improves, which, of course, will delight the mother, who sighs over the scribbles of her son or daughter for long evenings. True, the game of badminton is very mobile, so it is worth taking some precautions. For example, adults and children alike need to choose the right athletic shoes to prevent slipping and help prevent sprains and falls.

You should also carefully follow the precautions when rollerblading, which children simply adore. A helmet on the head, protection on the knees, elbows and hands – this is how you can avoid serious injuries. And for ourselves, we note that roller skating has a beneficial effect on the work of the lungs and heart. You can be convinced of this by your own example, with a breeze rushed along with the children along the path of the summer park. But as far as possible!

The bicycle has long been considered a versatile health promotion tool. And I must say that riding a two-wheeled “horse” is the most affordable family sport. Unless, of course, you signed up for desperate racers, unwisely performing risky pirouettes in front of your children. After all, it is precisely for them that from an early age it is necessary to explain the basic rules of safe traffic: do not go out onto the roadway and make bicycle routes for themselves only in places strictly designated for that. Without forgetting about this, let us add from ourselves that for many years the bicycle has served people as a faithful friend, allowing them to maintain their body strength, calm their nerves and return after each walk in good spirits and vigor.

People decide what kind of sport to do based on their character (and it doesn’t matter if it’s children or adults). Energetic people, whom we call fidgets, usually love football and hockey. Calmer, not tolerating fuss, choose cross-country and tourism. And the one who adores extreme sports – reaches for mountaineering or water descent in kayaks. And each sport that we talked about above carries a charge of healthy strength, power that we need so much in this life. Even light jogging, which you do along the forest alley with your children, is very healthy. This process also gives a feeling of unity with the surrounding nature, the world, with your loved ones and relatives. It also has a beneficial effect on the psychological climate of the family, saving it from unnecessary quarrels and conflicts.
