A father exercises with his 7-year-old child for 2 hours a day: How big is the future gap between children who exercise and those who do not?

I once saw a video of a father and son from Zhejiang doing sports together. In the video, the father and son are doing pull-ups together. The two figures, one big and one small, look very harmonious. Although the child is only 7 years old, he does not fall behind in playing sports with his father. According to the child\’s father, his son\’s arm strength is already considered top among children under ten years old. Now the child is learning professional rock climbing and is already a professional athlete. It can be said that this little boy\’s physical fitness is really very good. The boy has been exercising for 2 hours a day since he was 2 years old, and he has been doing it for 5 years now. The reason why children insist on exercising is inseparable from their father\’s persistence in accompanying them. Every day when the child exercises, his father will accompany him. The father and son exercised together, developing a good habit of loving sports in their children, and their physical fitness also got better and better. It is said that the educational attitude of parents determines the future of their children. Children are really lucky to have parents who value their children\’s health and know how to take their children to exercise. You know, exercise is very important for a child. Movement is a form of soft power. It not only helps improve physical fitness, but also helps improve personality. A child who can exercise will not be too bad in the future! There is a little boy in Changsha who can kayak, ski, and rock climb at the age of 9… Speaking of which, learning each of these outdoor sports is not easy. The boy knows so many, and he must have suffered a lot when learning. In fact, this is indeed the case. The boy didn\’t know how many falls he had while skiing; he didn\’t know how much sweat he shed while kayaking… But no matter how hard and tiring he was while learning outdoor sports, the boy never thought of giving up. Get up when you fall down, grit your teeth and persevere when you are tired! In this way, the boy learned the same exercise again and again, and became more and more determined. He said something like this in an interview: \”The harder the road, the more beautiful the sunrise will be.\” Such persevering words from a 9-year-old boy are really amazing. I am reminded of what the famous educator Cai Yuanpei once said: \”Human health depends not only on diet, but especially on exercise.\” Exercise not only exercises the body, but also a person\’s mind. Continuing to exercise for a long time can broaden children\’s horizons and cultivate their spirit of not being afraid of difficulties. This spirit will also accompany the child throughout his life, so that no matter what difficulties the child encounters, he will not choose to escape and retreat, but will move forward bravely and find his own path in life. Exercise has a great positive effect on children\’s physical and mental health. Many parents know this, but many times they care more about learning than sports, thus neglecting their children\’s physical education. In addition, many children now love to play with mobile phones, leaving less time for sports. But, really don’t do this! Children who lack exercise for a long time are really prone to physical problems of all sizes. A survey shows that in the past five years, the proportion of obesity among students has been increasing year by year, especially among primary and secondary school students. This means that more and more children have hidden health risks. There was a 13-year-old boy in Shaanxi who did not exercise for 5 consecutive days, which almost endangered his life. For five days, apart from eating and going to the toilet, he spent the rest of his time either playing with his mobile phone in bed orPlaying on the computer. Throughout the day, exercise time does not exceed 10 minutes. It wasn\’t until he couldn\’t stand up properly that he fell to the ground and went to the hospital to be diagnosed with severe venous thrombosis. That\’s when he and his family panicked. Because the doctor said that if he did not seek medical treatment in time, he would probably die suddenly. And this kind of news is really common. Previously, a 15-year-old boy in Xi\’an suffered from a lumbar disc herniation due to being sedentary for a long time. It was so serious that he needed surgery! It can be seen that long-term inactivity has a huge impact on the body. My health was not good at a young age. What will happen to my health when I grow up? I really can\’t imagine this. Therefore, parents must let their children move! Never let your children just sit at the desk to study or lie in bed playing with their mobile phones every day. Doing some appropriate exercise every day is really helpful for your child\’s growth! Children develop a good habit of doing exercise, which is beneficial to their physical and mental development. If you want your children to develop a good habit of loving sports, it is important for parents to lead by example. However, when it comes to exercise, parents still need to pay attention to scientific exercise and grasp the scale of exercise. A mother in Nanjing wanted to practice skipping with her child because her child was facing the high school physical education exam. Unexpectedly, after practicing, my calf hurt for more than two weeks. Finally, when she went to the hospital for a checkup, she discovered that the pain in her leg was due to an occult fracture. Because the mother had not exercised for a long time and suddenly started exercising, the intensity exceeded the tolerance limit of the bones, which led to the fracture. For this reason, parents must pay attention: whether they let their children exercise or accompany their children to exercise, they must grasp the scale of exercise and exercise scientifically. If you are not sure whether an exercise program is appropriate, it is best to consult a doctor or professional based on your child\’s and your own circumstances to avoid affecting your health. Of course, most children and parents can still do regular running and cycling. They just need to pay attention to the intensity. After all, exercise is to make children better, and if you exert too much force, it will be bad. As a child grows, exercise is an integral part. I hope parents can pay more attention to this and guide their children to develop a good habit of exercising. Because only when parents value sports, children will take sports seriously. Otherwise, it will be difficult for the child to persist in sports alone. After all, there are too many temptations such as mobile games, and exercise is tiring and difficult to persist in comparison. Everyone knows the benefits of exercise, but not many parents take their children to exercise together. During the National Day, parents rarely have more time to spend more time with their children. I hope parents can lead by example and take their children to exercise together. I believe that as long as parents pay more attention to sports, children will gradually fall in love with sports!
