Human body is structured in a specific way that it needs both physical and mental strength and stability to maintain individual’s fitness for a long time. In any sense, physical and mental strength is linked with each other such that healthy body helps mind to be prosperous and healthy mind keeps individuals away from depress situations. Those foods intake does help body to build itself and energize but the level of study a normal student does just makes it hard to keep the fitness level to the required level. Although, the educations’ main responsibility is to train mind and provide quality education but I think schools should require students to practice sports at least an hour on daily basics. Study helps student to gain knowledge and become educated for the betterment of society but daily one hour sports also helps in mental stimulation, blood circulation, motivation, active participation—both mentally and physically—and helps maintain fitness for longer period of time.
Education does helps in mental stimulation which improves brain to function accordingly. If an individual does not uses what he/she learns, he/she loses it eventually. Mental stimulation actually protects brain against cognitive decline; physical exercise also does the same. But it protects in a better way. Research shows that Olympic athletes who have limited time to train and then have to perform at high level, their brain plays an important role because it grows with the exercise they do along with study.
Blood circulation is also considered a major function of human body. Now a day, sitting down for hours in front of computer to do assignments, using only hands and moving lips or eyes does not helps any blood to circulate, instead it causes stress. Also, researchers have linked sitting for longer periods of time with major health concerns. To name some: obesity, metabolic syndrome, increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat, cardiovascular disease,
