Physical inactivity is the lack of physical activity adequate to the state of the body, as well as the subsequent weakness of muscle activity as a result of detraining. Let's briefly outline what causes it, who it threatens and what needs to be done to prevent this condition.
Inactivity is dangerous. What are the reasons?
Children and adolescents, as well as young people under the age of twenty-five to twenty-eight, are not usually affected by this condition. Hypodynamia is the scourge of thirty and forty-year-old held citizens. What is the reason? Young people often get a sufficient level of physical activity because they attend many sections, participate in competitions, go on hikes and go to discos. Thus, sufficient muscle activity is achieved by solving completely different tasks that lie in the field of socialization, competition, social communication. And since closer to the age of thirty, many are realized in the profession and receive a stable social circle, the sport is slowly being squeezed out of the field of interest. And if the state of the figure does not motivate toimmediate physical exercise, it is highly likely that a habit is formed not only of a sedentary lifestyle, but also of passive rest.
This is the mentality of most of our citizens: they feel the desire to go in for sports when there are he alth problems or excess weight. Meanwhile, it is much easier to make sure that you are never threatened by hypodynamia. It won't require much effort from you. All you have to do is decide for yourself that from now on you need to devote some time to physical exercises. Strong determination will be the foundation for the next steps that will lead to change.
Prevention of physical inactivity
Choose for yourself a set of exercises that will be easy for you to perform throughout the day. Set a reminder on your phone that won't let you forget the promises you made to yourself. Your complex should be associated with positive emotions. For example, accompanied by your favorite music.
Or (if it's a full workout) you wear your favorite workout clothes that make you look good and feel good. Consider your preferences. So, if you are a social person, perhaps a planned trip with girlfriends or friends to a fitness club will motivate you. If you have a pronounced individualism, noisy activities are a priori not for you. Choose the type of physical activity that will allow you to get the privacy and tranquility you want: solo jogging, gym,video training. Remember that the causes of hypodynamia can be very individual. Perhaps it is your decrease in activity that is associated with depression and depression, and you need to start by going to a psychologist and trying to understand yourself. Remember that the state of your body (as well as its muscle tone) directly reflects the sense of self and problems with self-perception.
