Going to the gym can get repetitive and boring, which may cause you to stop going altogether. Joining a sports team or club can keep you physically active by incorporating exercise in a way that seems less like working out and more like having fun.

Since teams and clubs are group activities, knowing there are people relying on you to be there can be a great push to keep yourself accountable for showing up and getting a workout in.

Most teams and clubs meet once or twice a week, anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour and a half.

This way of doing physical activity is very flexible – you can work out where you want, when you want and at whatever pace you want. Working out alone primarily allows you to focus on your body’s individual needs and is a great way to completely focus on yourself. You can follow a program that’s 100 percent customized to your needs and your body. That way, you don’t have to spend half an hour watching your partner do squats while you want to work on your chest.

WORKING OUT SOLO

Veteran sport is an indicator of the so-called "extended" sports careers where former top athletes strive to remain in the continuity of training processes, but also in sports competitions. Veteran sports can be characterized as recreation, although, sometimes the training processes in which veteran athletes participate are much more than recreation.

Indicators of this are their excellent results in international competitions.

Veteran sports are supported somehow by the states, but also financed from the veterans' own funds, which makes it difficult to participate in sports competitions that require financial resources for registration fees, travel, accommodation, equipment and props. Great enthusiasts, former top athletes who still want to stay in sports, sports activities with their own engagement or funds from sponsors, manage to participate in competitions.

Safety

All sports have a risk of injury. In general, the more contact in a sport, the greater the risk of a traumatic injury.

The most frequent types of sports injuries are sprains (injuries to ligaments) strains (injuries to muscles), and stress fractures (injuries to bones). Injury occurs when excessive stress is placed on tendons, joints, bones and muscle.

Most sports injuries occur due to the following: - Lack of education and awareness precautions and potential injury;

- Inappropriate or lack of equipment; - Poorly conditioned players.

Safety

Tips to Avoid Injuries While Exercising: Visit a personal trainer or get a coach: If you don't know how to start an exercise program or progress to that next level of anaerobic/aerobic exertion safely, a personal trainer or coach is the perfect option. They can give you safety tips and progressions to either get you started or accomplish your goal without getting injured; Warm up: It is never a good idea to workout muscles that are cold. Make sure you are warming up your body to increase your body's core temperature, blood flow to the working muscles, and also to mentally prepare yourself for the workout ahead; Cross Train: Your body will thank you when you change up your routine by engaging in different activities. This will not only help you avoid hitting a plateau with your workouts, it will give your muscles a much needed break from the same routine day in and day out. Plus, not only will your body benefit from diversifying your exercise routine, but so will your metabolism;

Safety

Tips to Avoid Injuries While Exercising: Be smart about your training: Just because you could do a specific exercise 10 or 20 years ago, doesn't mean you can exercise with the same speed and energy today. Be realistic about your training and not focus on what you use to do; Wear proper workout attire: Going to a specialty store for expert advice on what shoes you should be wearing is the first step because they can gauge what shoe fits best with your arch, gait and body weight. So many injuries come from wearing worn out shoes without any support; Eat a balanced diet and hydrate: What you eat and drink is just as important as your workout; Listen to your body with rest and recovery: Your body will give you the signals you need to know when to back off. If that knee is feeling a little achy, your soreness lasts for more than the recommended 24 to 48 hours, or you are just plain tired, then it is time to look over your exercise routine. Rest and recovery might be what your body is looking for. Make sure you take those rest days as your body is making actual gains during this time. https://www.active.com/fitness/articles/8-tips-to-avoid-injuries-while-exercising

Motivation

"The views expressed in this publication „Active in Sport Again�are the sole responsibility DSVR and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Croatian Government Office."

Motivation Many people start fitness programs or any other kind of sport but they may stop when they get bored, they don't enjoy it or results come too slowly. Here are some tips to help you stay motivated: Set goals: Start with simple goals and then progress to longer range goals. Remember to make your goals realistic and achievable. It's easy to get frustrated and give up if your goals are too ambitious. For example, if you haven't exercised in a while, a short-term goal might be to walk 10 minutes a day five days a week. An intermediate goal might be to walk 30 minutes five days a week. A long-term goal might be to complete a 5K walk; Make it fun: Find sports or activities that you enjoy, then vary the routine to keep it interesting. If you're not enjoying your workouts, try something different. Join a volleyball or softball league. Take a ballroom dancing class. Check out a health club or martial arts center.

Discover your hidden athletic talent. Remember, exercise doesn't have to be boring, and you're more likely to stick with a fitness program if you're having fun.

Motivation Make physical activity part of your daily routine: If it's hard to find time for exercise, don't fall back on excuses.

Schedule workouts as you would any other important activity. You can also slip in physical activity throughout the day. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Walk up and down sidelines while watching the kids play sports.

Take a walk during a break at work. Pedal a stationary bike or do strength training exercises while you watch TV at night; Put it on paper: Are you hoping to lose weight? Boost your energy? Sleep better? Manage a chronic condition?

Write down your goals. Seeing the benefits of regular exercise and writing your goals down on paper may help you stay motivated. You may also find that it helps to keep an exercise diary. Record what you did during each exercise session, how long you exercised and how you felt afterward. Recording your efforts and tracking your progress can help you work toward your goals and remind you that you're making progress.

Motivation Join forces with friends, neighbors or others: You're not in this alone. Invite friends or co-workers to join you when you exercise. Work out with your partner or other loved ones. Play soccer with your kids. Organize a group of neighbors to take fitness classes at a local health club; Reward yourself: After each exercise session, take a few minutes to savor the good feelings that exercise gives you. This type of internal reward can help you make a long-term commitment to regular exercise. External rewards can help too. When you reach a longer range goal, treat yourself to a new pair of walking shoes or new tunes to enjoy while you exercise; Be flexible: If you're too busy to work out or simply don't feel up to it, take a day or two off. Be gentle with yourself if you need a break. The important thing is to get back on track as soon as you can. Now that you've regained your enthusiasm, get moving! Set your goals, make it fun and pat yourself on the back from time to time. https://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/fitness/in-depth/fitness/art20047624

"The views expressed in this publication „Active in Sport Again�are the sole responsibility DSVR and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Croatian Government Office."

Mental Health The physical health benefits of exercise and physical activity are well established. Physical activity, as a general term, refers to any movement of the body that results in energy expenditure above that of resting level. Research is rapidly increasing concerning the impact of both on mental health. A focus on this relationship is very relevant as mental health outcomes may motivate people to stay physically active while also having a potentially positive impact on mental health.

Without regular participation, both mental and physical benefits will not accrue.

Mental Health There are four main functions of physical activity that have impact on mental health: - First, physical activity may prevent mental health problems; - Second, exercise has been examined as a treatment or therapy for existing mental illness; - Third, exercise may improve the quality of life for people with mental illness; - Fourth, exercise and physical activity can improve the mental health of the general public in a broad number of ways.

Mental Health There is some evidence that participation in physical activity prevents mental health problems from occurring at a later time. Given our aging society, senile dementia and Alzheimer’s disease represent significant public health burdens. Some evidence suggests a reduced risk of dementia for individuals who are physically active.

More extensive evidence is available regarding depression, documented in multiple studies. Overall, these types of studies suggest physical activity has a protective effect against developing depression.

Physical Health The health benefits of regular exercise and physical activity are hard to ignore. Everyone benefits from exercise, regardless of age, sex or physical ability.

Weight Management: Looking to get to or stay at a healthy weight? Both diet and physical activity play a critical role in maintaining a healthy body weight, losing excess body weight, or maintaining successful weight loss; Reduce Health Risks: Cardiovascular Disease: Following the recommendations and getting at least 150 minutes a week of moderateintensity aerobic activity can put you at a lower risk for these diseases. You can reduce your risk even further with more physical activity. Regular physical activity can also lower your blood pressure and improve your cholesterol levels;

Physical Health Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome: Regular physical activity can reduce your risk of developing type 2 diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome is some combination of too much fat around the waist, high blood pressure, low High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) cholesterol, high triglycerides, or high blood sugar. People start to see benefits at levels of physical activity below the recommended 150 minutes a week. Additional amounts of physical activity seem to lower risk even more; Some Cancers: Being physically active lowers your risk for developing several commonly occurring cancers. Research shows that adults who participate in greater amounts of physical activity have reduced risks of developing cancers of the: bladder, breast, colon (proximal and distal), endometrium, esophagus (adenocarcinoma), kidney, lung, stomach (cardia and non-cardia adenocarcinoma). If you are a cancer survivor, research shows that getting regular physical activity not only helps give you a better quality of life, but also improves your physical fitness.

Physical Health Strengthen Your Bones and Muscles: As you age, it’s important to protect your bones, joints, and muscles – they support your body and help you move. Keeping bones, joints, and muscles healthy can help ensure that you’re able to do your daily activities and be physically active. Doing aerobics, muscle-strengthening, and bone-strengthening physical activity at a moderately-intense level can slow the loss of bone density that comes with age; Increase Your Chances of Living Longer: Science shows that physical activity can reduce your risk of dying early from leading causes of death, like heart disease and some cancers.

This is remarkable in two ways: - Only a few lifestyle choices have as large an impact on your health as physical activity. People who are physically active for about 150 minutes a week have a 33% lower risk of all-cause mortality than those who are physically inactive; - You don’t have to do high amounts of activity or vigorousintensity activity to reduce your risk of premature death.

Benefits start to accumulate with any amount of moderate or vigorous-intensity physical activity. https://www.cdc.gov/physicalactivity/basics/pa-health/index.htm

✔Social aspects of #BeActive lifestyle – social inclusion through sport

Ready to #BeActive?

SOCIAL ASPECTS OF SPORT LO The phenomenon of sport is an important role for millions of people worldwide. All around the globe, more and more people enjoy playing, watching and to discussing variety of sports. Sports occupy a prominent place in different cultures realizing significant social influences. Sports is a significant form of social activity and it affect the educational system, the economy, and the values of the citizens. Especially, in the present time, the social impact and significance of sports is massive. We can summarize that sport has emerged in the last of the twentieth century to become one of the most pervasive social institutions in contemporary societies.

SOCIAL ASPECTS OF SPORT LO Many sociologists agree that physical education is a key way to socialize children, also sport provides a human goods significance. Sport is a popular culture and democratic activity. Simon (1985) suggests that, through sports and physical education, we can face and overcome challenges and develop a concern for excellence. We can engage in activities that we value for themselves, apart from the rewards that accrue to the most successful. Through sports we can develop and express moral virtues and vices, and demonstrate the importance of such values as loyalty, dedication, integrity, and courage. Sport serves the social psychological function of providing a sense of excitement, joy, and diversion for many people. Additionally, the centrality of sport is evident in the play of children, in our schools, and in institutions of higher education. https://www.efdeportes.com/efd199/social-values-and-sports.htm

SOCIAL INCLUSION THROUGH SPORT Sport is about participation. The most basic element of sport is people coming together to play. This is an extremely powerful tool. Sports break down barriers and build bridges where boundaries usually exist. Sport can be understood across cultures, languages and religions. These things that are often very divisive in today’s society are no longer a barrier. Sport can be a facilitator for making things more accessible, empowering women and girls, and build communities for newcomers, long-time residents and marginalized groups in our society.

We know that sport touches many aspects of someone’s life, such as social networks and sense of connectedness.

Sport can create a feeling of inclusion in society, no matter what age, sexual orientation, gender expression, whether you are able-bodied or disabled, religion, ethnicity or socio-economic status you are or hold. https://www.sportsforsocialimpact.com/post/social-inclusion-through-sport

EMPLOY THROUGH SPORT

Even the most successful athletic careers eventually come to an end. While aging and injuries make it difficult to continue competing at the highest levels, former athletes have skills and experience that make them ideal candidates for launching new careers when their sporting careers are complete.

Most athletes who compete at high levels have developed confidence, resilience and a strong motivation to succeed. These traits, along with the wide variety of relationships they have developed through their athletic careers, are all valuable for transitioning to new jobs for athletes. https://blog.soliant.com/careers-in-healthcare/best-jobs-for-former-athletes/

EMPLOY THROUGH SPORT

Based on sport autonomy, it is generally accepted that all sport products and services cannot be provided by the government. The result has been the emergence of non-profit sport organisations, which make up the gaps in between profit-oriented business and government.

Non-profit sport organisations /NGOs/ are therefore concerned with the public good rather than generating profit. As a rule, non-profit sport organisations are highly specialised in that they tend to evolve to fit a particular community sporting need. They are also administered mainly by volunteers. Non-profit sport organisations are the backbone of sport. Non-profit sport organisations develop communities, social networks andl ocal groups through the provision of specialised sport products and services.
