Book excerpt: Human communities have used Physical Education all over the world to develop fitness for survival in the struggle for existence, including the capacity for protection against enemies. Physical exercise, combative activities, and endurance training have been practiced in ancient times to prepare youth for the defense of the country and for developing unity in the society. Although the most opportune time for developing lifelong fitness habits in the childhood years, it is in the late teens and early twenties when a fitness consciousness among men and women is realized. At this stage in life, people reach physical maturity and the body is at its natural peak of physiological efficiency and health. However, it can be observed that in the late twenties and early thirties, the natural fitness begins to disappear. Lack of exercise begins to show its effect.

This book was released on 2013-11-13 with total page 503 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical inactivity is a key determinant of health across the lifespan. A lack of activity increases the risk of heart disease, colon and breast cancer, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, osteoporosis, anxiety and depression and others diseases. Emerging literature has suggested that in terms of mortality, the global population health burden of physical inactivity approaches that of cigarette smoking. The prevalence and substantial disease risk associated with physical inactivity has been described as a pandemic. The prevalence, health impact, and evidence of changeability all have resulted in calls for action to increase physical activity across the lifespan. In response to the need to find ways to make physical activity a health priority for youth, the Institute of Medicine's Committee on Physical Activity and Physical Education in the School Environment was formed. Its purpose was to review the current status of physical activity and physical education in the school environment, including before, during, and after school, and examine the influences of physical activity and physical education on the short and long term physical, cognitive and brain, and psychosocial health and development of children and adolescents. Educating the Student Body makes recommendations about approaches for strengthening and improving programs and policies for physical activity and physical education in the school environment. This report lays out a set of guiding principles to guide its work on these tasks. These included: recognizing the benefits of instilling life-long physical activity habits in children; the value of using systems thinking in improving physical activity and physical education in the school environment; the recognition of current disparities in opportunities and the need to achieve equity in physical activity and physical education; the importance of considering all types of school environments; the need to take into consideration the diversity of students as recommendations are developed. This report will be of interest to local and national policymakers, school officials, teachers, and the education community, researchers, professional organizations, and parents interested in physical activity, physical education, and health for school-aged children and adolescents.

Download or read book Effect of Hatha Yoga on Selected Parameters of Cardiac Fitness in African American College Students written by William Phillip Tonkins (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This randomized study examined the effect of Hatha yoga on parameters of cardiac fitness in African American college students compared with a control group. Yoga has been a successful complementary and alternative medicine intervention in the treatment of health disorders such as, anxiety, arthritis, asthma, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, depression, diabetes, and heart disease. A sample of 28 African-American college students was recruited to participate in a 2-month Hatha yoga intervention. A time-series case-control randomized study design with a pre- and post-test was used. Baseline heart rates, blood pressure, heart rate variability (HRV) variables, and oxygen consumption (VO2 max) were measured. All participants completed a 1-mile run pre-test to measure VO2 max. Ambulatory Holter monitor was used to measure HRV variables. Participants completed a questionnaire describing their exercise training history. Half of the participants completed a 2-month training period of Hatha yoga . Both groups were measured again during week 4 and at the completion of the training period (week 8). The effect of Hatha yoga on parameters of cardiac fitness in African American college students was examined statistically using Student's t-distribution, Fisher's F-distribution, and linear regression. The 2-month Hatha yoga intervention was significantly correlated with a decrease in mile run time and heart rate variability; an increase in oxygen consumption and diastolic blood pressure. Therefore, for this population of African American college students, it can be concluded that a 2-month yoga intervention improved diastolic blood pressure, oxygen consumption, mile run time, and components of heart rate variability. As research, such as this study, document the benefits and changes associated with the practice of yoga, it should be made available to all individuals. Yoga should be made available to those economically disadvantage, underserved populations that are unable to afford memberships to the luxury spas and gyms.-- Abstract.
Download or read book Fitness Measures and Health Outcomes in Youth written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2012-12-10 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical fitness affects our ability to function and be active. At poor levels, it is associated with such health outcomes as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Physical fitness testing in American youth was established on a large scale in the 1950s with an early focus on performance-related fitness that gradually gave way to an emphasis on health-related fitness. Using appropriately selected measures to collected fitness data in youth will advance our understanding of how fitness among youth translates into better health. In Fitness Measures and Health Outcomes in Youth, the IOM assesses the relationship between youth fitness test items and health outcomes, recommends the best fitness test items, provides guidance for interpreting fitness scores, and provides an agenda for needed research. The report concludes that selected cardiorespiratory endurance, musculoskeletal fitness, and body composition measures should be in fitness surveys and in schools. Collecting fitness data nationally and in schools helps with setting and achieving fitness goals and priorities for public health at an individual and national level.

This book was released on 2022-09-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoga is a complete science of life that originated in India many thousands of years ago. It is the oldest system of personal development in the world encompassing the entire body, mind and spirit. Traditionally Yoga is the union between a person's own consciousness and the universal consciousness. Yoga is defined as a science of mental control which helps not only one to control one's mental state, but also to improve one's personality and behaviour, if practiced regularly from childhood (Udupa, 1985). Taking into account the importance of Yoga in all walks of life, it has been extensively worked on. Yoga has been seen to have an effect on stress reduction at the managerial levels of employment (Heilbronn, 1992), and has been reportedly of wide spread use in the general clinical (Lepicovska, Dostaiek & Kovarova, 1988), as well as the psychiatric set up (Shannahoff, David & Beckett, 1996; Pasek, 1982). These studies have not only been extensively reported from the eastern part of the world but also from Europe and the United States, thereby providing evidence of the fact that Yoga has become more of a way of life, a harbinger of wellness and a path towards well-being in general. The physical benefits of Yoga were found to have been immense. Pranayama was shown to have an effect on muscular endurance, vital capacity and cardiovascular endurance (Sakthignanavel, 1998). Yoga training was reported to have brought about positive psychoneuro, physiological and biochemical alterations (Ganguly, Bera & Gharote, 2002),
Download or read book Exercise and Diabetes written by Sheri R. Colberg and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical movement has a positive effect on physical fitness, morbidity, and mortality in individuals with diabetes. Although exercise has long been considered a cornerstone of diabetes management, many health care providers fail to prescribe it. In addition, many fitness professionals may be unaware of the complexities of including physical activity in the management of diabetes. Giving patients or clients a full exercise prescription that take other chronic conditions commonly accompanying diabetes into account may be too time-consuming for or beyond the expertise of many health care and fitness professionals. The purpose of this book is to cover the recommended types and quantities of physical activities that can and should be undertaken by all individuals with any type of diabetes, along with precautions related to medication use and diabetes-related health complications. Medications used to control diabetes should augment lifestyle improvements like increased daily physical activity rather than replace them. Up until now, professional books with exercise information and prescriptions were not timely or interactive enough to easily provide busy professionals with access to the latest recommendations for each unique patient. However, simply instructing patients to “exercise more” is frequently not motivating or informative enough to get them regularly or safely active. This book is changing all that with its up-to-date and easy-to-prescribe exercise and physical activity recommendations and relevant case studies. Read and learn to quickly prescribe effective and appropriate exercise to everyone.

Book excerpt: Health is the general condition of a person in all aspects. It is also a level of functional and/or metabolic efficiency of an organism, often implicitly human (Jadad, AR and O'Grady L. (2008) At the time of the creation of the World Health Organization (WHO), in 1948, health was defined as being "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity". Only a handful of publications have focused specifically on the definition of health and its evolution in the first 6 decades. Some of them highlight its lack of operational value and the problem created by use of the word "complete." Others declare the definition, which has not been modified since 1948, "simply a bad one." (WHO, 1980) In 1986, the WHO, in the Ottawa Charter for Health Promotion, said that health is "a resource for everyday life, not the objective of living. Health is a positive concept emphasizing social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities." Classification systems such as the WHO Family of International Classifications (WHO-FIC), which is composed of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability, and Health (ICF) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) also define health. (WHO, 1986) 2 Overall health is achieved through a combination of physical, mental, emotional, and social well-being, which, together is commonly referred to as the Health Triangle.
