Metabolic Balance - The Importance of Exercise in Everyday Life - If You Rest, You Rust!
Whether at home, in the office or at school: In the typical daily routine of a modern person, most of the time only the chairs are changed, the body posture remains practically the same: In the morning, we move from the breakfast chair to the car and from there to the office chair. At lunchtime, it's enough to take a few steps to the canteen seat, and after work is done, you drive back home in the car to make yourself comfortable on the sofa.
No wonder that almost 60% of office workers complain about back problems. How problematic it is for us to develop into a sedentary society can already be seen in the children. Exercising a lot, playing around outside, testing one's own physical abilities – in the past this was a matter of course. Today, more and more children are involved in accidents because they exercise too little. They are often unable to direct and control their movements, lack muscle strength and responsiveness, and their sense of balance is underdeveloped.
However, age plays only a minor role when talking about exercise. Almost everyone can exercise in a beneficial way. Most people know how important exercise is in everyday life. As it is correctly said in the proverb: "If you rest, you rust." Regular exercise helps to minimize body fat and reduce the risk of high blood pressure and secondary diseases. Tension, back and joint pain can also be successfully counteracted in this way. Exercise is a wide field and is not exhausted in endurance sports and gym. It starts with, for example, avoiding the car when driving to work and instead riding a bicycle. If you cycle to work every day, even if it is only 15 minutes to get there and 15 minutes back, you do half an hour of exercise every day!
It is important that you sweat at least once a day and the body is lightly challenged. For example, by deliberately forgoing the elevator and climbing stairs instead. Or if you go shopping on foot instead of driving.
It is not beneficial for the organism to spend hours in front of the computer or on the couch. Prolonged sitting can lead to blood circulation problems in the legs and feet.
Therefore, you should shift the weight as often as possible while sitting. It is also good to move your feet while sitting, lift your toes and heels to relieve the veins, or lift both heels off the ground and bounce in your knees. At home on the sofa you can lie down on your back, just lift your legs in the air and “cycle” for a few minutes. Muscles are also trained in this way, fat is burnt and blood circulation is stimulated. Perhaps these exercises sound quite trivial to you: but – every step counts!
