Each one of us should find our own activity path. Our exercises need to be tailored to ourselves. Because everyone has a different activity level, and this level can be shown in childhood and would continue to adulthood. If one is an inactive person who does not find exercising interesting, he or she will not consider the time spent on exercising well spent. When one is exercising purely for the sake of improving health, the result might not be as expected.<\/p>\n
And it is mentioned that a person’s activity level will not be constant throughout the lifespan. Some people were active kids, but they become more fond\u00a0of quiet activities like playing\u00a0chess when they grow up. I was a very active\u00a0kid when in elementary school, but I become less and less active\u00a0after I was in middle school.\u00a0I feel this fluctuation in active level is largely related to the environment. In middle school our workload was heavy and the athletic field in the school\u00a0was constantly used by people in the school teams so I have less time and opportunity to do sports.<\/p>\n
Besides activity level, we should be careful in believing other generalizations as well. It is important to not follow health instructions blindly. The same medicine can have very different result on different people.<\/p>\n
It is a beneficial advice at the end of the chapter that taking a look at your own past history when you are more active is going to help you to stick with activities that fit well with your personality and lifestyle. Never force yourself to do exercises. It is better to find out who you are, what you like first, and develop a pattern, finally, follow that pattern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
