What associations arise with the word "physical education"? Of course, first of all, the school. Running, jumping, football. Moderate physical activity, slight fatigue, lightness, joy. What is associated with the word "sport"? Tension, exhaustion, work to the limit. Tears and disappointment or joy and delight.
Although these two concepts are associated with physical activity, they still carry different meanings. Sport, first of all, is a competition, competition, a struggle for leadership between people. The goal is to come first, to be the best, and sometimes many have to sacrifice for this: time, money, health. Yes, sport sometimes takes away health, but physical education adds it.
Just as a mechanical engine, if it works at the limit of its capabilities, will break down, so the human body cannot withstand catastrophic loads. Whether it is moderate physical activity, which improves the body, strengthens it, makes it stronger and more enduring. How often can you hear from athletes about various injuries? Someone pulled the muscles on the arm, someone bruised his leg, but with physical education everything is different, it is extremely rare when a person, doing physical education, gets injured and deprives himself of the opportunity to lead an active life for an indefinite period.
On the one hand, injuries carry a negative color, but on the other, you can also benefit from this. During this time, you can fully rehabilitate yourself, you will have to consult with doctors, study medical literature. As a result, a person becomes more literate, and at some point will be able to help another in a variety of situations.
Sports and finance
Ordinary “athletes” do not consider physical education as a source of income, but many athletes earn their living from sports. Participation in competitions, photography for various blogs, magazines and the like. For many athletes, regular exercise, daily routine, and nutrition are the basis of the livelihood they earn for a living.
As, for example, a grocery store cashier comes to work, so an athlete comes to training. What conclusion can be drawn from all of the above? Do only light physical activity? Not at all necessary. You just need to approach the issue of sports judiciously and prepared.
