Men's Health: 10 Rules of Kids' Fitness - ABC News

Men's Health

June 19, 2011

Parenting has never been easy. Since the beginning of time, men have tried to keep their children safe and healthy. But instead of protecting kids from, say, starvation and predators, like our cavemen ancestors, these days we're up against a modern batch of challenges: obesity and sedentary behavior—two equally formidable enemies. And since these are fairly new problems, your parents and grandparents might not have all the answers. Well, we don't either. But if you follow these 10 rules to keeping your kid active, you'll have a great head start.
Rule #1: Don't Rely on Organized Sports
Just because your kid is in T-ball doesn't mean that he's active enough. A new study in the Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine found that less than 25 percent of student athletes receive the recommended 60 minutes of daily exercise. Plus, the researchers found that the kids spent about 30 minutes of their practice sessions being completely inactive.

This is so very true. See the habits forming, watching TV for hours at a stretch, the sedentary lifestyle, the lack of stamina when outside playing.

This is something parents need to pay attention to.

7 Things Your Doctor Might Not Explain You

Visiting a doctor periodically for a check-up and getting tested alone does not prevent you from illnesses or risks. You have to get your medical examiner to be open and honest with you about the risks that you are facing if you do not commit to the said lifestyle changes, if there is a need for doing so.

1. The Facts Behind 'Quit Smoking'

Any doctor is not going to be an alarmist and so the general advice would be to 'Quit smoking'. What he might not be telling you are the facts and the benefits behind quitting smoking. For instance, research has established that even a man who has been smoking for more than 20 years can reduce his risk of suffering a stroke hardly a year after quitting smoking. After a full year, your risk of suffering a heart attack will be equal to that of a non-smoker. It is up to you to decide if your health and your family’s happiness are as important to you as the 2.5 inches of nicotine rush or not.

2. The Truth Behind 'Exercise and Workout'

Typically whether you weigh the right amount for your age and height or not, your doctor is prone to advise you to 'Exercise and Work out'. If you are fit and exercise regularly, he is likely to ask you to keep it up. On the other hand, if you are overweight and do not exercise, he is going to insist that you start on an exercise regime immediately and keep pushing yourself just a little bit harder outside your comfort zone for best results. But what he might not tell you is that just three strenuous workouts a week are enough for you to show significant results in your overall health. But remember, not to exert yourself too much as it will have an adverse effect on your health.

Are Kickball and Tag Too Dangerous for Kids? | LiveScience

Until yesterday afternoon, the New York State Health Department was ready to declare whiffle ball, kickball and freeze tag too dangerous for kids to play at summer recreational programs without a medical professional present. But after outcry from some state lawmakers, the department has decided to reconsider its stance.

At first, the Health Department's list of games that pose a "significant risk to injury" — which also included horseshoes, capture-the-flag, dodgeball and most team sports — came with regulations: Any summer program offering two or more games or activities and at least one of those on the list must take all the same safety precautions as a full-fledged summer camp, including having a medical professional on staff, hiring a camp director with a bachelor's degree and 26 weeks of camp experience, and keeping detailed records.

State lawmakers, however, said the health officials went too far with the regulations, which they introduced to comply with a 2009 law on summer camp oversight, and that the regulations would put a lot of small, non-profit local recreation programs out of business. In response, Health Department officials plan to reassess their position, and focus more on potentially dangerous conditions rather than specific games. "There will be flexibility in how the law is implemented," department spokesperson Diane Mathis told the press yesterday (April 19).

The surprising health benefits of getting outside - Yahoo! News

The next time someone tells you to “go take a hike,” don’t get offended. They may simply be expressing their concern for your well-being.
A study out of the University of Rochester suggests an outdoor romp in a natural setting — even for 10 minutes — can significantly improve your mood, increase your energy levels and make you a nicer person.
“Data shows that even 10 minutes outside will increase your feelings of wellness and vitality as long as you’re paying attention to nature,” says Dr. Richard Ryan, one the study’s authors. “People feel they’re more autonomous and integrated when they’re outside, more in touch with themselves, [so their increased niceness] is partly a reflection on that.”
Ryan, whose research focuses on personality development and well-being, started exploring the relationship between nature and mood when participants in his clinical trials reported higher levels of energy and vitality after spending time outside.

Why Exercise Won't Make You Thin - TIME

As I write this, tomorrow is Tuesday, which is a cardio day. I'll spend five minutes warming up on the VersaClimber, a towering machine that requires you to move your arms and legs simultaneously. Then I'll do 30 minutes on a stair mill. On Wednesday a personal trainer will work me like a farm animal for an hour, sometimes to the point that I am dizzy — an abuse for which I pay as much as I spend on groceries in a week. Thursday is "body wedge" class, which involves another exercise contraption, this one a large foam wedge from which I will push myself up in various hateful ways for an hour. Friday will bring a 5.5-mile run, the extra half-mile my grueling expiation of any gastronomical indulgences during the week.
I have exercised like this — obsessively, a bit grimly — for years, but recently I began to wonder: Why am I doing this? Except for a two-year period at the end of an unhappy relationship — a period when I self-medicated with lots of Italian desserts — I have never been overweight. One of the most widely accepted, commonly repeated assumptions in our culture is that if you exercise, you will lose weight. But I exercise all the time, and since I ended that relationship and cut most of those desserts, my weight has returned to the same 163 lb. it has been most of my adult life. I still have gut fat that hangs over my belt when I sit. Why isn't all the exercise wiping it out?

Sexual Healing for Cold & Flu Prevention | Energetic Health

Calling Dr. Love: Welcome to the first in our series on sex. It seems sex is integral to our health! Stay tuned...
Research has shown that frequent sexual activity — having an orgasm at least twice a week — can keep you from getting sick this winter. Individuals who engage in regular sexual activity have been shown to produce higher levels of immunoglobulin (IGA), an anti-body that can prevent susceptibility to catching minor colds and flus.

IGA is the dominant antibody in your body's defense system; it is present in saliva and mucosal lining and works as a barrier at the most common points of entry for germs that make you sick.

In a study conducted by Wilkes-Barre University in Pennsylvania, IGA levels were revealed to be significantly higher — at least 33 percent higher — in people that had regular sex with a partner than those who had less frequent sexual encounters. Regardless of length or the emotional health of the relationships, the benefits as a result of sexual activity were the same in the study participants. Not that we're advocating doing it with just anyone!

CDC Data & Statistics | Feature: An Estimated 3.1 Million Hispanic Adults Have Arthritis

Pain and activity limitations are more common among all Hispanics with arthritis than among whites. Exercise can help ease arthritis pain and activity limitations.
An estimated 3.1 million Hispanic adults in the United States have arthritis. A newly released CDC study provides information on the burden of arthritis among specific Hispanic groups in the United States. CDC found the prevalence of arthritis varied across Hispanic populations, ranging from 12% among Cuban/Cuban-Americans to 22% among Puerto Ricans.

How Much Weight Can You Lose By Walking On The Treadmill 45 Minutes A Day? | LIVESTRONG.COM

Exercise is one of the two most commonly used methods for losing weight, with cardiovascular exercise being the most effective form for weight loss. Although such exercises as cycling, running and cross-country skiing are cardiovascular options, walking can be just as valid a choice. It's low-impact, often more enjoyable and accessible without specialized equipment. Walking on a treadmill even eliminates the need to wait for good weather.

Exercise and Weight Loss

If you eat fewer calories than you take in, your body burns fat to access the energy stored in fat cells. Lost fat equals lost weight. Exercise boosts your daily energy needs, meaning you increase the number of calories you burn during the day. You need to do 3,500 calories worth of exercises for each pound you want to lose -- assuming you don't increase how much you eat in response to the extra energy expenditure.

Medical News: Southerners Move as Slowly as They Speak - in Primary Care, Exercise & Fitness from MedPage Today

By Kristina Fiore, Staff Writer, MedPage Today
Published: February 20, 2011

Southerners and folks from Appalachia appear to be the biggest couch potatoes in the U.S., according to a CDC report.

In the majority of counties in those regions, more than 29% of adults reported getting no exercise other than physical activity performed for their regular job. When compared with existing maps of other CDC data, counties with the lowest levels of physical activity also had the greatest prevalence of obesity and diabetes.

The new exercise data come from the CDC's Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) from 2004-2008, which used self-reported data from state-based adult telephone surveys and 2007 census information. The BRFSS survey asks participants if they do any physical activity or exercise outside the workplace.

However, the agency wanted to paint a larger picture of physical activity in the U.S., and synthesized the survey response numbers with stats and maps showing patterns of obesity and diabetes -- which can be found on a special page on the CDC's website.

More Than Half of Texans Lie About Health and Fitness Habits

Survey Finds Women More Dishonest Than Men and Correlation Between Weight and Lying

DALLAS (January 31, 2011) – At a time when many people are working to lose weight and get healthier, more than half of Texans admit to lying to family or doctors about their health and fitness habits such as nutrition and amount of exercise, according to the True Results Health Honesty Survey. Forty-six percent are not honest with family members and 32 percent admit to lying to doctors. True Results is a team of leading weight loss experts based in Texas.

Of those that lie, the majority (70 percent) do so only a few times per year and the main reasons for lying are embarrassment about one’s real habits (57 percent) and not wanting to explain the truth (33 percent). Only 30 percent have been confronted about their dishonesty.

“Lying about your health and fitness, if even only a few times per year, can signify a fundamental issue in your ability to achieve your health goals,” said Jessica Diaz, nutritionist and exercise physiologist for True Results. “Numerous studies have shown, the key to achieving any health or fitness goal is support from those around you and that cannot happen if you’re not honest with yourself or others.”

Gender and Weight Play a Role

True Results’ survey also revealed that slightly more women lie about their health and fitness habits to family than men (50 percent versus 43 percent) and to their doctors (34 percent versus 28 percent.) The poll also showed that overweight people are less honest with others. Weight categories were calculated by determining each respondent’s Body Mass Index (BMI), or measure of body fat based on height and weight.

Inactivity Is Harmful, Even With Trips to the Gym - NYTimes.com

Many of us sit in front of a computer for eight hours a day, and then go home and head for the couch to surf the Web or watch television, exchanging one seat and screen for another. Even if we try to squeeze in an hour at the gym, is it enough to counteract all that motionless sitting?

A mounting body of evidence suggests not.

Increasingly, research is focusing not on how much exercise people get, but how much of their time is spent in sedentary activity, and the harm that does.

The latest findings, published this week in The Journal of the American College of Cardiology, indicate that the amount of leisure time spent sitting in front of a screen can have such an overwhelming, seemingly irreparable impact on one’s health that physical activity doesn’t produce much benefit.

The study followed 4,512 middle-aged Scottish men for a little more than four years on average. It found that those who said they spent two or more leisure hours a day sitting in front of a screen were at double the risk of a heart attack or other cardiac event compared with those who watched less. Those who spent four or more hours of recreational time in front of a screen were 50 percent more likely to die of any cause. It didn’t matter whether the men were physically active for several hours a week — exercise didn’t mitigate the risk associated with the high amount of sedentary screen time.

Phys Ed: If You Are Fit, You Can Take It Easy - NYTimes.com

New Year’s resolutions tend to war with wintertime malaise. Resolution urges you to work out. Malaise suggests that you linger in bed. But there’s good news for those of us torn between these impulses. A number of newly published studies offer compelling reasons to get out and exercise on the one hand, as well as new estimates of just how little we can do and still benefit on the other.

The most sobering of the recent studies, published last month in The British Journal of Sports Medicine, looked at a large group of retired elite male athletes, most now in their 50s. Some had remained physically active, although they were no longer competing. Others had taken fully to sloth, avoiding almost all exercise. When the researchers examined the health profiles of the two groups, they found, to no one’s surprise, that the sedentary ex-athletes had a much higher risk of metabolic abnormalities, including insulin resistance, than their more active counterparts. Training hard and often in their youth had not conferred lifelong health benefits on the athletes as they aged, not if they now sat around all day.

Similarly, although in a more compressed time frame, a study published earlier this year found that when a group of world-class kayakers completely quit training (at the end of a competitive season), they rapidly lost strength and endurance. After only five weeks of not training, according to one measure of strength, they’d sloughed off about 9 percent of their muscular power and 11 percent of their aerobic capacity.
