Would a great source of entertainment be

lost if sports had never existed?

AXL FLOREZ QUINTERO

Sports are one of the best sources of entertainment for most of the world’s population. So

yeah, first of all, the world without sports would be a boring place. Sports are the best

way to calm your aggression. Human have a nature of showing dominance, so sports

would be a good option. Let’s take an example whenever there is an India and Pakistan

cricket match it would never be considered less than a War. The Ashes is also similar for

those countries. In Olympics only those countries perform well which are continuously

showing dominance in the world like America and China. If there were no sports there

would be more wars and violence in the world. The games like Boxing, Judo, Wrestling

were directly influenced by fighting nature of humans.

As the time goes on, and people don’t practice anything, they may become unhealthier

and face many health problems without sports. specially child they prefer more indoor

games rather than outdoors games. School life us quite boring without any competitions

or sports activity, lack of exercise affects our health: it can cause the appearance of

cancer, infertility problems, diabetes and can even lead to premature death. This is what

Gabriela Retana, nutritionist for the Real Sociedad soccer team, says.
“A sedentary person is one who takes less than 5,000 steps a day. We must remember

that a sedentary lifestyle kills as much as tobacco”, warns Retana, who also pointed out

that practicing exercise helps, in addition to controlling blood glucose levels and

preventing cardiovascular diseases, this is also one of the leading causes of death of

people with depression, and where does depression start from? so is boredom.

Moreover, if sports had never existed, we would lose a way to have fun and achieve

goals, such as muscle development, weight loss or fat reduction, all of which are related

to a healthy lifestyle (A happy life). In addition, physical activity also benefits hormonal

regulation and the reinforcement of the immune system and contributes to adequate rest

and reduction of fatigue. The beneficial effects of sport are not only physical, but also

affect mental health, as it prevents the onset of depression and helps reduce stress, in

addition to improving self-esteem and even social relationships when playing team

sports. In short, it makes you feel good!

Sports are not only the best way to maintain a healthy life but they also make a person

more competitive, hardworking, dedicated and so much more. Studies have now proven

that 1 hour of sports can lighten up your mood, increase cardio-vascular health, remove

depression, proper sleep and so many more things. Playing something, you love also

takes your mind off from things which are bothering you in life. So great source of

entertainment would be lost if sports had never existed.
