Is playing football good for your health?
Well, in fact, football is also a kind of sport, so the benefits that sports bring to the body are also there. Call it Pratt & Whitney for the time being. But football is also different from other sports (venue, mode, situation, intensity, etc. ), so there are also benefits that general exercise can't bring effectively, which are called special benefits for the time being, and then I will list the indirect benefits that the above benefits bring to the body. General welfare (football-related) 1. Effectively prevent cardiovascular diseases. During physical exercise, due to intense muscle activity, the heart does more work, the blood supply and metabolism of the myocardium are strengthened, the myocardial fibers are thickened, the heart wall is thickened, the heart volume is increased, the shape is perfect, and the pulse is strong. All this is also a good way to treat cardiovascular diseases. Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer endangering human life in the world today. It is reported that in China, people who died of cardiovascular diseases also ranked first. A large number of studies show that participating in regular physical exercise can significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease formation and occurrence. 2. Reduce the risk of diabetes. One of the characteristics of diabetes is that people's blood sugar level is very high. If it is not controlled, it will cause many other health problems, such as impaired vision and kidney deficiency. Regular physical exercise can control the improvement of blood sugar level, thus greatly reducing the possibility of individual suffering from diabetes. 3. Improve the function of the digestive system. Physical exercise will enhance the consumption of nutrients in the body, enhance the metabolism of the whole body, and thus increase appetite; In addition, it can promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and secretion of digestive juice, improve the functions of liver and pancreas, thus improving the function of the whole digestive system and providing good material guarantee for human health and longevity. 4. Control your weight and change your body shape. Obesity will affect people's normal physiological function, especially lead to heavier heart burden and shorter life span. If a person's subcutaneous fat exceeds the normal standard 15%-25%, then his risk of death will increase to 30%. Because physical exercise can reduce fat, enhance muscle strength, keep joints flexible, control weight and improve body shape and appearance. 5. Enhance heart function. Good physical exercise can enhance heart function, increase stroke output, thicken intima of arterial wall, increase smooth muscle cells and elastic fibers; The number of skeletal muscle capillaries increased and the branches were abundant; Make the coronary artery orifice thicker and heavier; The increase in the number of myocardial capillaries is beneficial to the improvement of blood supply and function of organs including the heart itself. At the same time, physical exercise can also reduce blood pressure and serum cholesterol content, which has a good effect on preventing hypertension and coronary heart disease. 6. In a word, regular exercise can improve various physical qualities of human body. This is because physical exercise is carried out under special conditions and environment. Organisms must mobilize and give full play to the functions of various organs and systems of the body, such as neuromodulation, enhanced breathing and accelerated blood circulation. Over time, various physical qualities will continue to improve. The benefits of particularity (related to football) 1. Improve the function of respiratory system more effectively. Football is a combination of running and leg exercise. During running, passing, shooting, etc. The depth of breathing will be strengthened, so that more oxygen will be inhaled and more carbon dioxide will be discharged, thus increasing vital capacity and strengthening lung function. This is because the main respiratory muscle groups (diaphragm, intercostal muscle, levator costalis, serratus superioris and so on). ) and respiratory auxiliary muscles (scalene, sternocleidomastoid, pectoralis minor, pectoralis major, etc. ) strengthen contraction and promote the development of these muscles, thoracic dilatation, chest volume increase, alveoli develop well, respiratory intensity increase, vital capacity, lung ventilation and sputum aspiration (Figure) Some studies have pointed out that people who exercise regularly have strong physical adaptability, and their breathing appears stable, deep and even, and the frequency is also slow. When they are quiet, their breathing frequency is 7- 1 1 min, while that of people who don't exercise is 12- 18/min. Women are 2-3 times faster than men. 2. Strengthen leg bones: Football is the best exercise to train legs. In the process of continuous leg movement, the blood supply of bones is improved due to the promotion of metabolism, and the morphological structure and function of bones have changed well: the bone density is thickened, which makes the bones thicker, the trabeculae of bones are arranged more orderly and regularly according to different pressures and tensions, and the protrusions attached to muscles on the bone surface are more obvious. These changes make bones stronger and stronger, thus improving the functions of bones in bending, bending, compression and torsion. Insisting on physical exercise can also enhance the strength around the joint, and the joint capsule and ligament are also thickened, thus increasing the stability of the joint; At the same time, physical exercise stretches the joint capsule, ligaments and muscles around the joint, thus improving the flexibility of the joint. 3. Extend the service life more effectively. A ten-year study shows that people who don't exercise are 42% more likely to die young than those who often play football. 5%。 The reason is that if you don't exercise, many places will accelerate aging and even get old before you get old. And these people who don't exercise have lower resistance to cancer and heart than those who play football.
