In Russia, many children are overweight. Because of this, they begin to be ashamed of themselves, become passive and lazy. Do you want this for your child? That is why try to accustom your children to different sections and circles. Plus, as they get older, they'll thank you for that.
In order for the classes to be useful, you need to approach the choice very seriously and responsibly. When choosing a sports club for their child, parents are most often based on their interests and pipe dreams. But is that right?
Therefore, the circle should be chosen based on the following factors:
- physical data of the child;
- the interests of your child;
- the nature of the child;
- qualification of personnel;
- the distance from home to the place of study;
- provided conditions and guarantees.
Perhaps these are the most basic criteria for choosing sports activities. They will help you choose the right activity for your child. There are some sports sections for very overweight children. For starters, it's best not to choose something too active for the overweight child. For example, football or hockey. Yes, these sports are spectacular and interesting, but they will put additional stress on the joints and heart of the child.
You can choose something from the martial arts, for example:
- boxing;
- jiu-jitsu;
- aikido.
There are such circles in many cities, and now both boys and girls are accepted there. Yes, yes, don't be surprised. The main thing is to explain to your child that this is not as spectacular as in the films, and in order to succeed, you will need to train a lot and hard.
Equestrian sport is another interesting activity and it is universal. It will be interesting to everyone. However, it has two significant drawbacks: it is very expensive and equestrian centers are not available everywhere. But if there is an opportunity to send your child there, then why not give it a try?
I must also say about swimming. This sport helps children develop their endurance, respiratory system and temper. And most importantly, injuries are rare.
Sport takes an important part in the life of any person, but it is not enough to lose weight. It is also necessary to adjust the diet, help the child gain confidence and self-confidence.
