I’LL JUST GET THAT OFF MY CHEST
Yes my friend I am still about and just about kicking He!He!He! I am blogging,not been well
In the western world we live in an age that is, by all objective criteria,the safest that our species has ever experienced in its evolution and its history.
We are healthier than any of our predecessors have been.We live on average considerably longer than even our predecessors have been.We live on average considerably longer than even our progenitors. Take a look at our diet,contrary to all the ‘anti-junk food propaganda; is not only the most nutritious but also the most free from potentially dangerous contamination and bacteria that we have consumed.Despite the gap between the rich and poor,we have never had it so good’when it comes to a lack of objective risks to our lives and to our well-being.
He!He!He!……………….
At the same time we have,ironically,come to fear the world around us as never before.Why? In the absence of real risks,we my friend,we invent new and often quite fanciful ones. The better off in our society,who have the least to really worry about,are most prone to this novel neurosis of our age-fearing instant death from the contents of their dinner plates,unless chosen with obsessive care,and ‘unacceptable’ physical decline from failure to follow every faddist trend recommended by their personal fitness trainers.We fear that our children are constantly in danger danger from strangers -despite the fact that the vast majority of child abuse occurs within the family-(and boy)
feel compelled to ensure their safe arrival at school by transporting them in people carriers-while at the same time decrying the depletion of fossil fuels and ‘unacceptable’ levels of environmentlal pollution-and we wonder why our children are getting fat.How many times a day do you walk your child to school or exercise in a week?.
Regular exercise for kids who are physically fit sleep better and are better able to handle the physical and emotional challenges that a typical day presents-be that running to catch,bending down to tie a shoe ,or studying for a test.The three elements of fitness.Try and watch the kids playing and you will see the three elements of fitness in action.The child: 1 .Runs away from the kid that’s "it"(endurance)
2. crosses the monkey bars(strength)
3.bends down to tie his or her shoes(flexibility).
we should encourage kids to do a variety of activities so that they can work on all three elements.(try getting them to limit the amount of time spent TV or Video games He!He!He! GOOD LUCK.
Wish you all a happy week
