Lyudmila Antonova Fitness and your health

Introduction

It is known that people suffered from diseases of the spine at all times. The famous Greek physician Hippocrates did not ignore this problem. Moreover, he argued that it was the pathology of the spine that was the main cause of many other diseases.
It would seem that today medicine has stepped far forward, but diseases of the spine are now no less common, and even more common than several centuries ago. People, on the other hand, often do not go to the doctor, believing that the cause of their ailment is elsewhere, not even realizing that their frequent headaches, weakness, dizziness, back pain, and even stomach or heart pain are caused by some kind of spinal disease. And even more so, they do not think about the fact that if you do not change your lifestyle, then soon you can replenish the percentage of those who are forced to agree to an operation or become disabled.
Attention!
Fitness is usually called complexes of physical exercises, which include elements of aerobics, shaping, dance, martial arts, meditative and psychological techniques. In addition, fitness implies a special nutrition system.

Spinal diseases affect people of all ages. So, disorders in the spine can be detected already in children 4–6 years old. Quite often, a disease of the spine is also diagnosed in schoolchildren. However, their parents are most often worried about children: they make sure that the child has a suitable size table for classes, a comfortable chair, they buy an orthopedic mattress, they make sure that he regularly does gymnastics or swimming. But then the child becomes an adult and stops worrying about his spine: in the morning he rides in a car or bus to work, spends most of the day in a chair, then goes home again and most often spends the evening in a chair watching TV. So with minimal physical exertion, most of life often passes, and it is not surprising that after a few years a person begins to feel pain in the neck in the morning, especially when trying to turn his head, and then back pain. However, those who are forced to engage in physical labor are also not immune from diseases of the spine: overload, regular weight lifting affect the spine as negatively as sedentary work. Finally, it should to mention one more problem - age-related changes in the spine, which can also lead to the development of a particular disease.
Attention!
Walking, especially in nature, is very beneficial for the body. You should walk straight without slouching. It is also important to monitor breathing - inhalation should be through the nose, and exhalation through the mouth. This is necessary so that harmful substances from the environment do not enter the body.

From the foregoing, we can draw a simple conclusion: without waiting until the pain in the neck or lower back becomes regular, you need to change your lifestyle - walk more, run, roller skate, bike, skate, ski, swim, dance, do gymnastics. All these exercises are very effective for the prevention of diseases of the spine. However, if the disease is already developing, jogging in the morning or dancing may not be enough. In this case, special sets of exercises will be required. And, of course, in no case should we forget about proper nutrition, which is also included in the concept of "fitness".
Arthritis and other joint diseases are now also widespread among the population of almost all developed countries. This is due to the peculiarities of nutrition and lifestyle. Inactivity from the consumption of foods with a high content of substances that turn into uric acid crystals in the human body are the main causes of joint diseases. Although it is generally accepted that joint diseases usually develop in old age, young people and even children often suffer from them now.

Important!
During exercise, the heart rate increases. At a frequency of 140-165 beats per minute, breathing through the nose becomes difficult, so mixed breathing is usually practiced. However, breathing through the nose is preferable.

In addition, there are other ways to treat joint diseases: therapeutic fasting, special cleansing of the body and diet, as well as exercise therapy, which can serve as a prevention of arthritis and other joint diseases.

Obesity

What is the first thing we pay attention to when looking at a person? Of course, on its appearance, the main component of which is the figure. For most people, a fit, athletic man a physique or a graceful woman are much more attractive than an out-of-shape man.
However, as you know, obesity is not only an aesthetic problem, but primarily a health problem. Obesity – это нездоровое состояние организма, характеризующееся усиленным накоплением жира в клетках жировой ткани, а в случае сильного ожирения – увеличением жировых клеток, иными словами, разрастанием жировой fabrics.

The energy necessary for life is produced as a result of the splitting of complex substances entering the body into simpler ones.

It should be noted that the accumulation of fat in the cells of adipose tissue is a natural process in the body as a result of the consumption of a large amount of energy that does not correspond to the energy consumption of the body. In the normal state of the body, such an excess does not last long, since there are neuropsychological mechanisms that regulate the energy balance. Obesity развивается в результате нарушения работы данных механизмов.
The main component of the mechanism for the development of obesity is the adipose tissue itself, which performs endocrine and autocrine functions. Substances secreted by adipose tissue have a variety of biological effects and can affect the activity of metabolic processes in tissues and various body systems, either directly or indirectly through the neuroendocrine system.

The predisposition to obesity, as a psychophysiological state, develops long before the disease becomes apparent.

In this regard, many are wondering how to permanently get rid of this disease. First of all, you need to rid your body of a predisposition to obesity, in other words, switch it from a state of increased accumulation of adipose tissue to a state of intensive fat burning for energy needs.
A more difficult task is getting rid of excess weight. In order to do this, it is necessary to follow certain rules regarding, first of all, the diet and energy consumption, as well as physical activity. Taken together, these rules form a kind of weight loss program, following which, a person achieves the intended result. Thus, we can conclude that weight loss should occur through a complex effect on the body.

Of great importance in the regulation of energy metabolism is the central nervous system hypothalamus - adipose tissue. Its main link is the hormone leptin, secreted by the fat cell (adipocyte), which contributes to the rational utilization of energy resources and their use.
