PEAK FITNESS DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE
Remember when you were in your 20s? Researchers report that physical fitness peaks at around 20 years of age and stays there into the early 30s. That is when the fitness levels begin to decline gradually into old age. The good news is that those who have the peak fitness levels in their 20s usually stay physically healthy and need less healthcare services during their lives. Adolescence is the most important phase in all our lives. It’s when our cardiovascular, cardiorespiratory, skeletal, and muscular strength are formed, creating the foundation of health for life. Bone mineral density (BMD) peaks in the late teens. BMD is the main factor in whether a person acquires osteoporosis and may suffer its effects in later life. Physical activity and nutrition are factors that teenagers have the ability to influence the building of the best bodies they can for their future. (1) Do they? Manahawkin Chiropractic Center recognizes that adolescent teens don’t think about these things. The teen years have many other distractions demanding their interest!
HOW CAN WE HELP Manahawkin TEENS BUILD THE BEST BODIES POSSIBLE?
Competition and activity seem to work! The best ways to get teens to as peak a fitness level as possible is to encourage them to move early in life. One study arranged competition among student groups outfitted with pedometers and monitored their steps for 12 weeks. Students in the study all showed more physical activity both in in-school and in after-school activities. Their cardiorespiratory fitness increased. Body fat and waist-to-height ratios reduced. The leisure-time physical activity increased for a year after the intervention.
